During my four years at NCCU, I was able to participate in two internships with Fortune 50 companies — State Farm and Wells Fargo. I was honored to be offered a job with both companies after my internships. And now, Wells Fargo has offered me a full-time role that aligns with my career path in corporate investment banking after graduation.
