You are learning a lot in your classes-- learning to think, analyze, and communicate. That’s great! However, if you want to intern and/or work in finance, you’ll need to supplement your great education with some preparation for recruiting and interviews.

January is the perfect time to learn the skills necessary to land that internship or full-time position. The Loeb Center's Traub Careers in Business and Finance program will host an 8-session workshop series for sophomores and juniors looking to understand and enhance preparation for finance interviews taking place in Spring 2021 & Summer 2021.
