The question that every senior in college dreads oh so much.

For those fortunate enough to secure an internship already, they are able to sit idly by and watch the frenzy. The great ones will of course fiercely reject that notion and strive to better themselves either way.

Those like myself, though, must truly appreciate the art of the hustle. A handshake here, a follow-up email or LinkedIn invite there, and know that everything happens for a reason. This trip gave me a newfound confidence in myself that had been depleted over time as I watched others around me get jobs and go out into the world.

I now know exactly what it takes to get a job in this industry, let alone any industry; determination, relentless passion, and just enough self confidence to land you that next meeting.

Here’s to the hustle.
