By virtue of Stephen being able to locate Mexico on a map, he went to Atlanta this weekend to attend the National Society of Hispanic MBA student's career fair. Because he is so Hispanic. Or not...anyhow, he spent from Thursday through late Saturday in the peach state, networking and such. He interviewed with Target (located in MN), P&G (Proctor & Gamble, OH) and Johnson & Johnson (NJ), and talked to a bunch of other companies: Ocean Spray (they sound pretty cool! Located 30 miles south of Boston), IBM, Amazon, Campbell Soup Company, Kroger, Kimberly-Clark Corporation, Sara Lee Corporation (can't you just see us eating pies all day long...), and a bunch of others. He has an interview with United Stationers (just north of Chicago) on Thursday, and he's pretty excited about it.
He went to a couple of cool parties on Friday night - the best one was P&G's - it was held in the Atlanta Aquarium, and he said there were some whale sharks, a hammerhead shark and other cool stuff. He went to a little hole-in-the-wall diner on Saturday, and ate the best ribs he's ever had! I'm glad he's home now, although he'll probably do some fly-backs for second interviews. The MBA program is definitely an investment, both money- and time-wise!
