<p>I recruited heavily in quant heavy fields - investment management, consulting, etc.</p>
<p>As for recruiting advice…</p>
<ul>
<li>Use the career center. The staff there are very, very good.</li>
<li>Attend as many info sessions and career fairs as possible. Not just for the sucking up (which is a necessary evil), but to gain a perspective on what options are out there and where you fit best…this will help you confidently answer the “why do you want to work here” questions…another benefit of attending info sessions is that you can talk to some of the people you will be interviewing with before the actual interview. this eliminates the 3 minutes of awkward small talk at the beginning of most interviews and allows you to be more comfortable from the beginning.</li>
</ul>
<p>For the job I chose, I had a variety of relevant coursework and internships. Also, although I am not the strongest interviewer, I was able to present myself as hardworking, humble, and fairly mature in my interview…and this is something I learned mostly from doing (and failing) multiple prior interviews lol</p>
