During Olin’s annual New York Career Trek, more than 50 BSBA students gained insights from alumni and hiring managers on what it takes to succeed in the Big Apple.

Sponsored by the Weston Career Center, the trek was scheduled over 2 days and included two tracks, finance and marketing.   On the final evening, both tracks participated in an Alumni/Student Roundtable co-hosted by WCC and Olin’s Alumni & Development.  This event is similar to “speed dating” with timed group “table” rotations providing each student the opportunity to connect with an additional 30+ alumni from firms and industries across New York.

Finance track visits included Cain Brothers, Nomura Securities, Morgan Stanley, JPMorganChase, Goldman Sachs, Sagent Advisors, Guggenheim, Tyrian Investments and Elliott Management.

Marketing track visits included Google, Bloomingdale’s, Seefood Media, Interbrand, Distillery and Time Warner Media Lab.
