We’re proud to kick off Episode 1 of our Podcast with Jamie Rizzo, a Zicklin MS Accounting alumnus with more than two decades of experience in business and finance. He is currently an asset manager at Aflac Global Investments.

Topics discussed with Jamie include:

• Researching Deeper: Doing effective research about companies you’re looking to apply to or with which you’ll be interviewing beyond what you just find on the website.

• Really Understanding the Role: Researching the role for which you’re applying and really understanding what the role is, and why that’s what you want to do.

• Thinking in Parameters: Thinking in a mindset of as many possible parameters (best-case scenario, worst-case scenario, most likely scenario, least likely scenario) to be able to make the best decision or conclusion.

• Curiosity: Being curious will make you better in business.

We also talk about Jamie’s new book, The Ultimate Career Guide for Business Majors. Information about the book can be found at https://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Career-Guide-Business-Majors/dp/1544059795
