The 2nd-year students, the Office of Career Development, Stern alumni and my classmates were all very helpful and supportive during the recruiting process. Whenever I had a question, it seemed that there were always several people within reach to give me guidance and suggestions. I always felt everyone associated with Stern was on the same team – my team. It just made everything so much easier."
