"My third year has been great so far! It’s more fun, because I get to specialize and learn more about my area, Marketing. The class sizes are smaller now than in first and second years, which means there’s more time to talk to professors.

Also, I recently got a new job at a bank. Everything at Telfer has helped me with this position. I’ve learned to manage my time properly between school, work, family and friends.

Telfer also offers many opportunities to find a job, whether it be an internship or a co-op term. I’ve experienced it myself. It is indeed an academic advisor from Telfer who told me about that summer internship at the bank. I applied, and I got the job!"
