hey i got in, west coast target. i just emailed the recruiter and followed up on my app, no networking. 4.0
these diversity days are so random, this is the first one i’ve gotten into and i have a really strong app. surprised when i saw it

 

it’s so frustrating haha, the ones i don’t network i will sometimes get a pull and the ones i do the people their have no idea about them and can’t really refer. always worth the try i guess, also maybe email the recruiter a couple of weeks before and say if there are any spots that got opened up you’d love to attend

 

to be fair, this is like the second one i’ve gotten and i’ve applied to so many:/

 

anyone who is going for a west coast school? would love to connect, feel free to comment so we can dm!!

 

Hey, when did you apply to this ? Could u dm me the link of the application? Would be really grateful to you, thanks!
