man, you're all over the place. Doing one thing so it complements another, doing economics so you can do consulting when you should be doing somethign else.. all over the shop. What do you really want to do, as a job, 5 years from now. What can you talk about in a bar (as lame as it is) at...

haha i remember those people. I worked in computer sales at a harvey norman/bing lee etc. type place and there was this Lexmark rep that would come by every couple of months to try and get us to like lexmarks and promote them. But the thing is, lexmarks are shit, there's no way you can spin...

what's middle market, risk management or something? UNSW, 30% USYD, 20% UTS, 20% MAC. i'd say thats about right, tho maybe even 30 mac and 10 uts, seemed to be a lot of successful mac ppl through

Re: internships 07 heh, comparing internship salaries seems to trivial to what us students live off on a weekly basis. can't wait to earn my real-job/fulltime work moneys :P

wait so you applied for the exact same job (tax or whatever) but at an accounting firm. wtf is wrong with you, just wait a year ffs. All entry-level jobs are fairly shit, you're completely green and you're at the bottom of the ladder, just give it a year or so. you have their number? how...

i was at every interview for all the big 4, talking to all the candidates, there was like 1 UWS person i'd seen, and he'd changed from sydney to woolongong, and was doing a masters or something, so it kinda didn't count. vagabond, was that in the initial app. screening or in the later stages?

Re: StuVac & Exam Period Bitch and Moan Thread (I, 2007) sweet, where's the link for that thing, deosnt come up on google

Re: internships 07 i had a kpmg offer, really liked the place, but pwc won me over in the end. havy, big 4 is the right way to go, it's really nice to have on your resume, ask any guy on the street whether they've heard of a big 4 company and they usually have. Not so with most smaller...

Re: StuVac & Exam Period Bitch and Moan Thread (I, 2007) this is about usyd: there's no fucking tables in the library. when i found one after an hour of looking after i left this girl ran for it, like honestly ran with their books. this is a bit ridiculous

well they're going for $400 on ebay, that makes the face value seem cheap

even if the clock was set right, 9:01 is ridiculous. with scalpers as they are nowadays you need to be on their in the 1st 5 seconds, a minute later and you have no hope.

Re: internships 07 thanks for the tips. maybe you can find out what the hell the deal is with those gillete power shavers. Not the electric shavers, but the normal shavers that they've then made vibrate. like, doesn't that make it harder to shave, like who honestly buys that, i dont...

Re: internships 07 i agree with not preparing answers, as in, not putting down sentances. however, i think you need to at least think about types of questions they might ask and what examples your going to draw on, because it can take some time to dig through your life experiences and...

Re: internships 07 clearly, it was received well, but would you agree that there could been a danger that it was viewed as "sucking up" too much? This is a good example of a central issue, a balancing act in interviews i find: Being too cute, and having prepared answers with the...

i went and listened to these bands. they all seem to have have that distinct american whiney, nu-metally punk type voice, you know the one i mean. i can't stand it. Incase i'm just confused, i compare the vocals with Rage against the machine, bjork and arcade fire (BDO), they're...

what does that mean? that song was like "radiohead's treefingers" most radiohead fans don't like that song, cos there aint nothin' there.

but engineering has a higher average. Engineering starting salaries are pretty high compared to business, but i imagine business overtakes in the long term signifcantly, whilst engo has a ceiling. Is this correct?

Re: internships 07 woah, the length's to get this job are ridiculous. with their thorough examination of you it sounds like you'll be in charge of like a division or something after you start

since when does the high school matter, it's never brought up in an interview. however, High school = what uni you get into, unless of course you were the only kid who didn't turn up to class drunk and swear at your teacher, who managed to get 95 in your public school, but odds are...

a really nice canon that is 4mp from a few years back would be better than a kodak with a shocking lense. Its all about the quality of the glass, the quality of the light receptors etc. none of which anyone pays any attention to. meh
