Job satisfaction:

I have been extremely satisfied with my job. The good points are that I do a variety of tasks and my job is very challenging (but not overwhelming) most of the time. The bad points are that being a consultant you don't get to create many friendships since you tend to move from client site to client site without seeing a certain group a people too frequently. There is also the possibility of being sent to a client site you don't like.

Suggestions for students:

Look for job fairs in and around Atlanta listed in the classifieds and be honest about your expectations of the job you're seeking. It's just as important that you want to work for them as it is that they want to hire you. People hire people they like and can easily talk to. Never look desperate and never be arrogant. Have many questions ready to ask.
