“Throughout my whole college student life, they tried to fit
us into the particular mindset of working at a consulting
firm.”
“As a business engineer, the sector you are most
familiar with, is business consulting.”
“As an exchange student, I decided to take
random clases to broaden my vision and by
chance I bumped into social business.”
“I wasted a lot of time, assiting to workshops
around building a resumé, how to prepare an
interview and so on.”
“I’m aware that I have a very limited
point of view around potential fields of
work.”
