Well I know it has been a while and I apologize to my die-hard blog followers. Since my last post I finished up my first year classes, spent my summer as a private banking summer associate at Credit Suisse, and started my fall classes. I am currently trying to meet all of my credits to satisfy my MBA/MSF requirements. To do this I am enrolled in five classes currently, four of which are finance-related. I am also working in admissions one day a week and searching for a full-time job come graduation. There is a lot going on right now and my second year is flying by.
Job interviews started last week and I have had two so far and one more this week. Balancing my academic commitments with job interview preparation is a challenge at times. It can be easy to focus on the jobs and push off academics until "later." However, with mid-terms fast approaching next week, I am in full balancing act mode and conducting triage on my obligations daily.
I still find time to enjoy myself and relax. The flag football season is underway and as competitive as ever. We have a few more tailgates to look forward to as well as a few class parties. Now that I am on the "back nine" of my MBA, I need to make sure to take advantage of as many social events as I can.
Next post I will let you know how the job hunting is going.
