I just received an interview invitation for Ross. YEAY ME!!!!!

I have the option of interviewing via phone or in person. I can’t really do in-person because I’m short on cash now that I’m unemployed and all. I hope the phone interview doesn’t hurt me that much.

Ross is probably a better school than Stern, but the location makes a difference not just in experience but in terms of recruiting as well. My goal is to park my brain somewhere for two years, get comfortable with concepts in finance and marketing, have a blast, expand my network of ultra-bright and competent friends, and then get a better job than the one that I had before.

I actually think that Stern’s curriculum is inferior to Ross, but the Stern alumni base will be more useful to me when it comes to find a job. However, I already had the whole “small town” experience at UVA. New York is vibrant. I want to stay here.  Build a network here.

With that said, I would be thrilled to go to Ross should I get in and have no other options.
