Student Spotlight: FCLC's Layne Fable shares her career tips!

FCLC senior Layne Fable wrote an amazing blog post as part of the Looksharp Internship Blog Competition. You can find some of her tips on interviewing below. And be sure to check out the full blog post on her site, www.laynefable.com.

"Nothing is worse than a weak handshake, make sure your handshake is firm (but don’t Hulk crush their hand). Smile. Smile. Smile. Would you want to work with somebody who never smiles? (If your answer is yes, then we are not on the same page). It will also help calm your nerves if the person interviewing you is cheesin’ back as a result of your smile. Don’t forget: the person interviewing you has been in your spot, it helps to calm nerves as well. Listen to their questions and think about it for a second. It’s not a speed test on how quickly your answer comes out! Make sure to answer their question to the best of your ability, not just blurt something out. (I tend to speak quickly when I’m excited/nervous so maybe you guys do too!)"

American Civil Liberties Union Internship Opportunity

     A Fordham Alum working for the American Civil Liberties Union is still looking to hire Speech, Privacy, and Technology Project (SPT) interns for the fall semester! The ACLU is offering great opportunities for anyone interested in privacy, surveillance, national security, law, and Edward Snowden.

 

     The SPT is part of the ACLU’s Center for Democracy, and is dedicated to protecting and expanding the First Amendment freedoms of expression, association, and inquiry; expanding the right to privacy and increasing the control that individuals have over their personal information; and ensuring that civil liberties are enhanced rather than compromised by new advances in science and technology. The project is currently litigating cases and conducting other advocacy efforts on a variety of issues, including political protest, freedom of expression online, privacy of electronic information, journalists’ rights, scientific freedom, and openness in the courts.

Interns will gain valuable experience by working with the SPT team on a wide variety of issues to include:

• Conducting factual and legal research on issues relating to free speech, privacy and technology.
• Preparation, production and development of litigation and advocacy materials.
• Drafting documents for the project’s Free Future blog.
• Conducting research on Freedom of Information Act request projects.
• Attending meetings to gain firsthand knowledge of active cases and advocacy projects
• Litigation and advocacy projects.
• Assisting with the maintenance of case files.
• The option of proposing independent research projects relating to project issues.
• Other projects as assigned.

Alumni Spotlight: Gregory Marks's Experience With Project Firefly

Today's Alumni Spotlight is written by Gregory Marks, Gabelli School of Business class of 2015. Greg graduated from Fordham with a degree in Economics. During his time at Fordham, he participated in Project Firefly, a merit-based initiative that offers talented students and recent graduates the chance to take part in competitions, win awards and get hired for their skills. Here, Greg speaks about his experience participating in Project Firefly's competitions.
 

     "No matter what school you go to, no matter where you are from, the Project Firefly Academic Review Board reviews submissions on pure merit and pure merit alone. Project Firefly has a range of competitions available to Fordham students pursing a Bachelor, Master, MBA or PHD degree.
 

     During my time at Fordham, I was able to leverage time outside of the classroom with Project Firefly to publish written pieces, participate in competitions and debate topics with professionals from Credit Suisse and the Financial Times. Additionally, after a successful participation in the 2014 Emerging Leaders Competition, I spent a week in Hong Kong at the Credit Suisse Asian Investment Conference with Project Firefly where I met global leaders in government, monetary policy, and business. With that said I strongly advise Fordham students to take up the challenge and showcase their talent through Project Firefly's competitions."

 

 

Here are some articles that Greg published through Project Firefly:

1. Crude Move: Portfolio Reallocations and the USDollar (I)
2. Crude Move: Portfolio Reallocations and the USDollar (II)
3. Non-Standard Measures Are Risking Stability
