What happened next…?
How many blogs start with the line: ‘Its been a while since my last post…’? Well, it has been a while, but with exams, dissertations, graduations and now full time job-hunting in a tough climate, the 2009 Finalists certainly have their reasons.
So, what has become of the Finalists? Was Florencia lured from the glamourous decay of print world into the bright lights of a new media career? Did Jan Sramek become that Emerging Markets/Global Macro trader at G.S? Is Jan Seifert running his own firm and championing green causes? Did one too many scandals convince Daniela to give up on UK politics? We hope to bring you updates on the Finalists over the next few weeks.
Where are the Finalists of 2010? Four years of running the Finalists blog has convinced us that writing about looking for work alongside the pressures of a final year is a lot to ask of our bloggers. So, this year, with the big noise all about a saturated graduate employment market, we’ve decided, rather than wave off our 2009 graduates, we’re sticking with them, and focusing our attentions on the experiences of those who are braving the world beyond LSE.
LSE Graduate Advance is a new blog for recent alumni, written by a variety of contributors, including members of LSE Careers. The blog is updated (regularly, her hem) with careers news and information, drawing on the new LSE Graduate advance service, launched for LSE alumni this summer.
We’re keen to hear from you if you’d like to add a blog post - anything from info and events to real-life experiences, particularly if you’re an LSE alum, could be of interest – please just get in touch: careers@lse.ac.uk
