Term 1 is over
In no time, Term 1 got over. Now is the time to sit back and work on job search. As I mentioned earlier, I start for Atlanta to visit consulting firm offices. Networking is crucial in any type of job-search. Its degree of importance varies on job by job.
In consulting, it will get the foot in the door. It helps to show firms your interest in their firm, and will help in making to the "closed list" ( people who are invited for interviews). After that it is all case interviews.
Whereas in Finance, Investment Banking type of job, networking is more than a foot in the door. The firms usually make up their mind based on the networking.
Term 2 begins next week.
