Georgia Tech Career Fair: Day 1

i went for the year's biggest career fair held on GT campus. its mainly targeted at the graduating students, but since i might be starting a co-op term as early as this summer semester, i thought i go look for a potential employer. had my resume done few days back, and all the companies i was going to check out was mentally mapped out.

and i think it turned out pretty well. there were tons. a common conception would be that if you go work at a big company, then you'll be earning less, but i dont care. im definately going to work for 4 or 5 semesters, and its the experience im going for. i took a visit to the booths for GE, UPS, Home Depot, Chrysler-Daimler, Motorola, Michelin, GoodYear, Bank of America, etc, etc, but the few that really impressed me and vice-varsa (hopefully) was the big guns, Honda, Toyota, Rolls-Royce and guess what - CIA. yes, CIA. they dont seem that secretive, and their opportunities seem very challenging and interesting. i would definately want to give a try at CIA.

there's gonna be another session tomorrow, but with a completely different set of companies. among the big ones tomorrow are microsoft, intel, l'oreal, bridgestone and Wal-Mart. let's see how that goes.

things are moving so fast, tough, but its all good. things at delta sig, hall council and numerous assignments and meetings keep me real busy. i guess i can never escape that anymore, even though i bowed not to do that in university. im keeping an eye on joining the RHA or the SGA as i progress in tech, while at the same time, completing a minor, certificate, co-op and of course, a degree.

big fat dreams. but in 5 years, its all very possible. it is moving in the right direction.

i realized how my recent blog entries have become a little different. maybe its to do with the numerous responsibilities where i now have to act more maturely and not let myself be prone to a potential criticism to what i say.

i've got to head for english group meeting now. i guess this is the only way i'll keep blogging, right before meetings or classes.
