Humans of Telfer – Yassine

“Once we’ve started our program, it becomes difficult to know if we’ve made the right choice. Theory and practice are often very different things!

This is why my advice to you would be to try to gain some experience in your field of study as soon as possible to become familiar with it. The employers you will meet in the future will sense that experience! Also, don’t be afraid to participate in the networking events hosted at Telfer. It’s a fantastic – and free – resource made available to us, and it is up to us to take full advantage of it!”

– Yassine Tahiri
4th-year Finance student, Telfer School of Management

Inspired by Brandon Stanton’s Humans of New York, this weekly feature of the Telfer Career Blog will contain photography of individuals from the Telfer School of Management community and a corresponding narrative that gives us a glimpse into their lives.
