Are you a Bucknell graduate seeking career support?

With the help of the CCA, I applied for any and every internship I could find at New York City firms ... It was amazing to get a real taste of what the work is like this early on. There's a possibility that this opportunity can lead to even more internships, which I'm so grateful for.
