Recap of New York City: Great Success
Back in Tempe now. What a relief, escaping the cold and the packed city streets of New York. Overall the trip was great success. The dinner at Mr. W.P. Carey’s
penthouse apartment on Park Ave was unbelievable. It was an Arizona State University Alumni dinner with around ninety successful individuals working with the financial fields in New York City. It was an amazing experience that helped further my career with the numerous amounts of high-level contacts I met. As for Friday, unfortunately I missed the Yankees World Series parade. Unfortunate yes, but my focus of the trip was to network and land an internship for next summer so as a result I was at J.P. Morgan for meetings throughout the day. Looking back I had a great time during my trip. Exhausted now especially after the USC vs ASU game, in which we almost won, but anyways New York is an incredible world, fast pace and all. My plans are to fly back in January for further interviews so lets hope it all goes well and I will keep you updated. Have a good weekend. (Will post pictures of the trip next week, or at least the few I have)
My Trip to New York City: Off to the Big Apple
Updating you all on my personal life. This week, I will be flying out to New York City in order to
network with an array of professionals within the industry. The goal is to meet as many individuals as possible to learn more about the business, required skill sets, and diverse career paths in the industry. I hope to learn as much about Sales and Trading as possible and learn the ins and outs of how to succeed within this cut-throat industry. Since I go to Arizona State, top Investment Banking firms don’t come and recruit on campus so I have to take the initiative myself and go out there to show them what I can offer. Excited to finally make my mark on Wall Street and see the place in which I hope to embark my career in only a few years. Also, excited to travel around New York and see the sites in my down time. Will update you throughout the week to tell you how the trip goes and will post pictures. Excited for the experience except its going to be a change of scenery leaving sunny Tempe, Arizona to go to the snow. Stay tuned!!!
