This week I am facing 4 interviews, my final board meeting, a huge wine event and a class presentation. It's been 7 months since my last interview and I'm surprise that I'm not a nervous wreck right now. Many people believe that something magically happens over the summer after their internship but I truly believe every classmate has the confidence instilled in them from Day 1. Day by day, class by class, and interview by interview another layer of confidence is added to our beings. I don't want to get philosophical but its amazing how my outlook on classes and interviewing differs from a year ago.
During last year's Mini 1 & 2, I remember thinking there was no way I was going to remember all of these concepts from class. 7 weeks go by fast especially when you have 5 midterms and/or finals to study for. It wasn't until my internship and "Game" that it all came together and my mind just clicked. Wow, this is what happens when you merge economics, statistics, finance, and strategy together. Just understanding how everything comes together and being able to apply it is probably the biggest boost of confidence I've felt this year. I look forward to utilizing some of my knowledge in my interviews. I'll keep you posted on how that goes.
Hey Jackie, best of luck with the interviews. And thanks, it helps to know that it gets easier!
