Hello everyone, after this job offer to a BB (risk management) and a relaxing first half of senior year, it suddenly dawned on me that this is not the end of everything...now I have to think about what to do after the analyst program! I'm really not sure now what to pursue, am not very sure how passionate I will be in the financial industry, and don't know what other good exit opportunities besides grad school. I don't even know if I will stay in this career or switch to another one. Even if I go to grad school what will I study? It's a confusing mess right now and my life has never been so uncertain. Please give me some advice on how to go forward! Thanks so much!
