This year, after completing all of my co-op terms, I decided to join the U蓝莓视频 team for the McGill International Portfolio Competition (MIPC). While the prize money was a good motivator, I figured I could also come out of this competition gaining more skills at my disposal.
Regardless if we win or lose, I believe that it is special to represent your school at these kinds of events as it encourages us to STRIVE to be the best we can be!
Launch Your Career is a must-attend event!
There is no better time to try new things than in this virtual learning environment! In early November, I participated in my first case competition with a few friends at the University of Guelph鈥檚 first ever Lang Tax Case Conference.
