Focusing on My Future
This week started out with my phone interview for my externship that I am applying for in the spring. It lasted about 10 or 15 minutes and was relatively casual so I'm hoping that's a good sign. There are three other classmates applying for this position and we all had very similar interviews, therefore we are hoping that we all will be asked to go.
On Wednesday Pitt had the largest job fair in its history. I believe there were more than 300 companies there to recruit upcoming graduates. Most of my classmates attended and I think that we were primarily focusing on the same companies, one specifically. I went up with one of my friends and we talked to the company we were most interested in. To our surprise we were invited to an applicant dinner that evening with other candidates. However, our joy was thwarted when we found out that several other classmates had interviews scheduled for the following day. We made the best of it, went to dinner and socialized and we are supposed to have a phone interview after a few weeks.
Other than that I've just been busy with my classes and trying to get everything organized for Saturday when my friends and I leave for Seattle for the AHIMA Convention.
