Landing an Internship with Goldman Sachs
"The School of Management Mentorship Program and getting involved with organizations like BLK Capital Management have been ultimate game changers for me at Marist," said Tyler Street. "The mentorship program helped me get the Goldman Sachs internship, as well as so many other opportunities that wouldn鈥檛 have been possible without it."
Tyler Street secured a highly competitive summer analyst internship at Goldman Sachs' AYCO Consumer Wealth Management Division and will be headed to Chicago. Street points to the many experiences he's had access to both on and off campus as helping distinguish him from other candidates.
