Goals Post Fellowship
Posted on | February 22, 2011 | Comments Off
Succesful applicants were asked what their plans were upon completion of their fellowship.
Serena Ng: I didn’t know what the fellowship would lead to, but I was well aware that there was no guarantee of a job at Dow Jones or the WSJ after the program. I also knew the bar to get into the WSJ (and any other major media organization in the U.S.) was extremely high, and the standards of journalism weren’t the same as the local paper I worked for. I did hope, however, that I would be able to get a job in the U.S. after graduating from NYU, either at a wire service or a newspaper here.
Saabira Chaudhuri: To hone my writing/reporting/research/interviewing skills on the one hand, and also develop a base of business/economics/finance knowledge on the other. I also thought about what sorts of internships I might want to apply for over the course of the semester and the summer in order to supplement (rather than replicate) any existing work experience I had.
Nesil Staney: Yes, to become a Journal reporter. Cover Wall Street.
Eva Woo: A financial journalist. which is what i am now.
