Freshman Seminar Fall 17 EMA

Career Fair

On Friday was a Career Fair hosted in Baruch. I was able to attend this event with Skylar and Ana. We were able to see first-hand just how Baruch prepares students for golden opportunities, and lay a platform for students to gain access to resources. There was a large line of students fully prepared in professional attire from the ground floor circling down the staircase. There was definitely a difference between the three of us and the other students attending. We quickly realized that “business casual” does not quite cut it. We took this as a learning experience to dress for the job you want. Furthermore, we saw this as an opportunity to network. Though there was an overwhelming amount of potential employers, we managed to narrow it down to the business we were interested in. I expressed an interest in Crowe Howarth and TD Bank among other corporations. It was great to see that Baruch enables and empowers students to go after the careers they desire. In the near future I hope to acquire an internship position at possibly one of the career fair businesses that were kind enough to come.Skylar, Cyntia, and Ana
