Anyone from Charlotte?

Re: Anyone from Charlotte?

Hey stewatt, glad to here you found a place. I actually start work tomorrow at Wachovia doing IT Audit. I got the job through on-campus interviews this past fall.

About the apartment issue and what floor. I've lived in apartments where I've had people above me and also ones where I was on the top floor. My current place and my last place I was on the first floor. I have not had much noise at all from either. Every once in a while someone will drop something, but in all honesty it does not bother me at all. I feel that in more professional areas, you don't have to worry about it as much. Living on the first floor has one really nice perk also; it's A LOT easier to move your stuff in and out of. Nothing more I hated then moving up 3 flights of stairs.

If you have any more questions, don't hesitate. When I was looking to move to Charlotte, I relied on the internet heavily to gather information.

Thanks,

Holy cow you're about to enter the real world, mad real world. I've heard auditing is miserable, but hopefully you have better luck with that. I've heard it's about 2 years of hell and then you have it made. Congrats on the job with Wachovia. I wasn't able to get a job during school because I played baseball. I was never able to intern because of summer ball and it seemed that every campus fair we had conflicted with a game or practice.

From the people that are in my program right now, it does not seem that bad. Sure its auditing, but it's not like accounting auditing. My position is more of risk management for the bank. I do get to travel some with my job and my program has me doing 3 different rotations within different areas of the bank as a whole. I'm looking forward to it, but not really this first week of "corporate orientation."

Good luck with the job search though.

Thanks,
