Manage episode 433947392 series 3001459
School is in session! With colleges and universities gearing up for the 2024-2025 academic year, it’s prime time to get the perspective of someone who’s recently walked those halls and is days away from taking that next step into the “real” world.
After many times (and many years) conversing over the kitchen table, this is the first time I’ve actually interviewed my son, Brett Liebross! Brett is a recent college graduate who is about to start his career in investment banking with Harris Williams in Boston, MA. And he has many valuable insights to share about his journey from college to securing his job.
In this episode of the She Thinks Big podcast, you’ll hear about his view on the impact of networking as a freshman, how career aspirations can affect your personal happiness, and his advice for kids entering college. Brett will also reveal the key strategies, challenges, and personal motivations that shaped his path and could help you if you’re looking to transition in your work.
4:19 - How connections were key to Brett securing his internships and job (even over academic achievements)
11:00 - Three things that motivate Brett in regards to his career choice
13:00 - How Brett keeps going on days when he feels tired or burned out and what gets him excited
15:55 - The two sides to traveling down the road of success
17:30 - What all college-bound kids (and their parents) need to know before they get to college
21:00 - How Brett defines big thinking (with an example of a how friend bet on himself)
