hello "big 4"

ejazbmw · 10-07-2009, 01:57 PM

today was career fair at my school and i was talking to one of the reps for pricewaterhousecooper regarding internships and the lady and I were having a long 15mins conversation. I guess she seemed to like me and offered me a internship on the spot, although Ernst & young would be my dream job either way its still a big 4 which is every business major dream job.

ejazbmw · 10-07-2009, 01:58 PM

oh and of course i accepted it

Spool · 10-07-2009, 02:01 PM

SantaPimp27 · 10-07-2009, 02:02 PM

Every accounting majors dream, maybe. Never once during my undergrad did I ever consider working for an accounting firm. And my uncle was a partner at E&Y!

But congrats on the internship and I hope its everything you are expecting it to be.

dth656 · 10-07-2009, 03:38 PM

yeah, most of my friends who were undergrad business or econ majors dreamt of:
-McKinsey
-Bain
-BCG
-Goldman Sachs
-Morgan Stanley

err well i am an accounting/finance major so its a dream job for me

JoosyJoos · 10-07-2009, 03:54 PM

Congrats. You're lucky. I'm graduating in December with a 3.9GPA in Finance at the University of Georgia and I can't find anyone who even wants to interview me despite the fact that I'm in the top 5% of my class.

Oh and my dream would be automotive consulting...
