Except, I don't like summer. But it's all that's been on my mind lately. I have been scrambling to find things to do, internships to intern at; I spend every spare moment I have speed applying for every corporate internship I can think of. Thus far, I have only received two replies, and both internships are based in Utah. At this point, I could care less where my internship is located, or even that it's in Utah. Staying here over the summer would minimize financial and re-location stress, but of course, I will always wonder about the wonderful internships outside of Utah I might have enjoyed more.
Things are not all drab, though. The one internship here that I am pinning my hopes on is at Mutual of Omaha, an insurance/financial-type company. The position is one of a financial planner/analyst-type thing. The recruiter mentioned something about outbound, non-sales calls to inform clients of financial products, but she mentioned something about handling clients' assets/finances. So I will be very excited if I get this, because I have always wanted to handle people's assets, but never thought that there was really any market for such a position, considering all people really talk about in the financial world is i-banking, accounting, brokering, and so on. My hope is that having this relatively big-name company on my resume will ease the job search post-graduation. The recruiter even said that if they like me as an intern I may be hired on permanently, and this company has offices nationwide, including in New York. *Fingers crossed*
