Summer has been flying. We are already halfway through our SCP project, evaluating a new area of business for an Australian company called Facilitate Digital. I've been working on it from New York with three classmates who are based in Oxford. There have been a series of early-morning phone calls with the company's London office and another with the CEO who is based in Sydney, so I suppose that part of the project is preparing me for the random hours associated with a career in international business.
Other than the SCP I have been job-searching. Unlike previous job searches I'm trying to network more than I search the internet. It may take a little longer but I'm hoping something better will come of it. It's moving along despite the sluggish economy so I'm hopeful that something will work out in the next couple of weeks. On one level I'm happy to have the job search to take up some time. The SCP requires a good bit of work but I wouldn't call it a full-time job. I'm not really sure what I'd be doing with the extra time if I already had a job lined up!
On a lighter note, this weekend there's an SBS event for those of us in New York, both alumni and current students. There are a couple of people from my class who are in town this summer and it will be nice to see them and have an opportunity to talk to the local alumni. We'll have their same status soon enough.
