I graduated in 2009, which - if you think back to where the economy was at that time - was an interesting time to graduate.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
In 2010, I was doing pretty well. I was going to go to graduate school.
I was going to get a degree in economics and be a teacher. But I couldn't afford to pay for the education. So I just got the MBA and not the doctorate. I loved it at Bain, and I've been there ever since.
I was an economics major, which I enjoyed because I had a good business sense.
I was a great student at a great school, Wharton School of Finance.
When I was 17, I was excited to graduate from high school!
I graduated in '91, so the '90s for me were very much the first years out of school, so I can't really look at that decade as independent of my own experience of my 20s, really.
Even though I didn't get a business degree, I enjoyed learning about economics.
It was a recession when I graduated, but I was so unequipped to have a job anyway, I don't think it would have mattered if the economy was booming. I think I was expecting bad jobs. But as it went on through my 20s, I began to wonder how things were going to turn out.
I graduated from college in 1980.
I left school at 16 and skipped university to work, initially as a waiter. I think I missed out on what would have been great years.
