I Found a Job in the Pandemic | UCLA 2020 Grad

After 9 months of un(der)employment, I finally got a job! And I am making my return to KZread! I am working full time for the next 6 months as a Project Coordinator at SoundHound Inc! This works out perfectly with my timeline for school. This goes without saying, but this year has been very challenging; I worked at two different BHLDN locations, got furloughed from one of them, suffered through 12 weeks at Whole Foods and endured unemployment for months and months. I'm grateful for this opportunity and want to use it as an example of how beneficial internships are. Aside from that, I have been working on grad school applications and am waiting to get admissions decisions back in the next few weeks. Stay tuned to find out what the results are 😉

    congrats on getting your job! videos on the GRE and internships would be great! a topic I am interested in is any advice you have on finding a path after graduation (finding a career vs. going to grad school).

    Congratulations! As I suggested to you sometime ago, “Yes!” to your applying to graduate school journey! The GRE process, personal/statement of purpose essays, etc. Your transfer videos of your journey going from WVC to UCLA have been informative and helpful. I am very sure your applying to graduate school journey will be just as informative.

    Peggy Chou the thing is that every program will have its own requirements. This is why it’s very important to do research about each school/program you would like to apply to. Since I have only applied to SLP programs, I will be focusing my videos on my experience with the process and requirements for the schools I applied to.

If possible, I'd love to hear you talk about the process of finding an internship and the challenges you faced as a transfer student.

Personally, I have never applied to any MBA programs.
