Post-Grad

Figured I'd start off my WSO career with a question and by asking for some advice from the veterans:

I'm currently a Junior at Villanova University just outside of Philadelphia, and now that I'm going into the final lap of my college career, I've been doing a lot of thinking about what I'm going to do after graduation. I've done a few internships in Philadelphia and in Wilmington, DE, so I project that I might be able to land a decent finance or accounting job in those cities. While, I'd be more than happy to even have a job, I just can't imagine myself living or working in those places. Philadelphia's a great city, just not for me, and Wilmington is small and boring as shit. So what is Villanova's reputation like in other parts of the country (anywhere but the NY-NJ-PA area)? Also, do yall have any advice for someone who has minimal work experience trying to find a decent job in other parts of the country?

I am permanently behind on PMs, it's not personal.
