I Did It!

I am officially a BU grad with a Bachelor of Science in Communication. When I walked into the auditorium for the College of Communication's ceremony, I got very emotional. The whole experience was surreal. I cannot believe I will not be returning to Boston University next year and I am entering the "real world." I am excited about starting a new chapter of my life, but extremely sad that I had to leave behind the past four years of my life.

Now I really have to get down to business and follow up on some of the jobs I have applied for and keep looking. This whole experience is overwhelming - college flew by. It seemed like just yesterday I was touring the university campus on accepted student day. It seemed like just yesterday I started my first internship with a major publications company.

Anyways, I will post an update about the job situation later in the week! I know from my feed that people have been visiting...any other recent grads? Please comment!

  1. Hi Lauren. Congrats on graduating! You should be very proud.

    Welcome to the other side...the working world. I know that you'll find something that's the right fit for you. Getting into advertising is tough but I know you can do it. Just attend networking events, meet people for informationals, apply to jobs to your interest and I'm sure something will hit soon. Just be bold and put yourself out there.

    I graduated last year from business school in Canada and I found that a lot of my peers either weren't happy at their jobs or switched jobs once or twice already. Focus on what you want and things will happen, it's just a matter of time. Best of luck!
