In Reply To: I will be graduating this coming December (I will only be 21 and in college 3.5 years) and want desperatly to get a job in the consulting field. I will only graduate with a 3.6 in accounting, but have a 4.0 both in my major and in the business school as a whole. (Rough Freshman year) I have tons of EC's...for instance, I am in the process of founding an investment club that will start with over $250,000 in assets (we are only a few days from getting the money), but I need to know what these firms specifically look for. I will have the stigmatism of being from the University of ALabama forever and need to do something to separate myself from that. How do I go about getting a job in the Northeaset when I live 1500 miles away with hardly any contacts? Does cold calling firms work? Money isn't an object........yet.......I just want to get my foot in the door. Thanks for the help.
Message: Plenty of time.....
