I can't believe it. Today was my last day of work! Woohoo!!!!! I was so excited last night that I couldn't fall asleep. It felt like Christmas. Even though it was my last day, I was still fairly busy. It was tough to catch up with people and say good-bye because I was working right up until 6pm before our intern farewell event.
It's funny, at the beginning of the internship, everyone is gung ho and excited. Now, everyone is over it and wants the program to end. Haha. During happy hour, the other interns were asking each other if we would do this F/T. I personally thought that this was inappropriate to ask at this time since HR was at the event as well. I'm sure they would love to hear people hesitate or say no as they're going to be spending next week deciding who gets an offer or not. With that said, we're supposed to find out by Aug. 31 if we get an offer. The most likely feedback time will be early next week though. With the recent downturn in the banking industry and layoffs at work, they're cutting the number of offers this year. It's going to be tough. I'm very curious to see the numbers and who gets an offer, who accepts and declines. Barclay just announced their numbers and it's 1/3 offers, 1/3 hold and 1/3 no offers.
All I know is that I'm looking forward to going back to school and doing orientation next week! We start Peer Advising training tomorrow so no rest for me, but I don't mind. The welcome reception for the incoming first years will be on Sunday night. It's going to be a crazy week but a lot of fun to relive orientation week. I'm already losing my voice though! I can't believe that! I think my second year is going to be awesome. Hopefully I figure out my full-time job and can relax about that. I plan on doing a lot of travelling and enjoying time with friends in this last year.
