Seriously…
If I get another email from the career services department about internship opportunities in supply chain or operations positions I’m going to completely write them off for any potential help. I don’t know how many times I have to talk to my advisor about how the reason I came back to school was to get out of that field, but she doesn’t seem to want to listen.
I understand that they’re nervous because 85% of the class has internships right now and I’m not one of them, but I’ve turned down interviews and job offers thus far because I know what I want to do and that isn’t anything close to it. I settled for a job once, and it sucked the life out of me for 2 years. I’m not doing it again. Besides, Emory’s only at like 50% so who cares.
On a good note, I fly up to New York next week to interview with a company that I really want to work for. They’re a startup with no internships posted, so I kinda just blind emailed them a resume with a cover letter explaining that I really liked what they were doing and would be interested in working with them this summer. Hopefully it all goes well and I can land something awesome up there for the summer.
