Making connections
By Katie Sullivan | November 14, 2002The idea of trying to get a job in New York City conjures up images of living in overpriced, tiny apartments while working two menial jobs and jumping at every opportunity to get hired somewhere else. But it doesn't have to be that hard. Next Tuesday, University Career Services will hold an information meeting about the New York Recruiting Alliance for third- and fourth-year students interested in a job or an internship in New York.
