22 With No Clue Interviews

My name is Brenton and I recently graduated from the University of Illinois with an offer from my dream company in New York. Assuming that this job would provide a seamless transition to East coast culture, I was ecstatic. This idealistic expectation was immediately met with the harsh reality that I knew very little about adulthood and career navigation. This was my welcome into “real life.” On a brighter note, I was fortunate enough to meet new people on a weekly basis. These people all seemed to have some form of brand or craft underneath the belt alongside their day jobs. My environment was filled with people obsessed with opportunity. Inspired, I felt everyone deserved to share my experience learning from an endless amount of professionals bringing their ideas to fruition. Maybe we can all learn this life thing together.
