It’s that time of year again in the IST Building: the violent ruckus of interviewing for internships and jobs. Everyday I see classmates coming to class in suits and ties saying they have interviews with huge, prominent companies like KPMG, IBM and Lockheed Martin. It’s so nice in IST to have a relatively easy barrier of entry to these companies, because they come looking for us.
Yet what am I doing? I’m not doing anything.
Of course I’m slightly nervous by the fact that I’m a junior now while not feeling a particular urge to seek out placement in a professional career. I haven’t even touched our college’s career placement system called COMPASS. Am I screwing myself?
Possibly. I just smirk like an insane person as I keep pounding away on product ideas. And keep failing, haha. Hopefully I’ll stabilize enough to be able to graduate with a B.S. in another year with complete satisfaction.

Daehee,
You and I have discussed this, but I just wanted to restate, I completely agree. Haha. Graduate school is definitely going to be my next step if I’m not ready to ‘launch’ something by graduation.
I admire the amount of work you put into your projects.
Wondering if the economic downturn has shifted the job market for your field now?
Thoughts?
