A tough decision to end an awesome 2010

When I started preparing for interviews I had a hard time coming up with a good story about a very tough decision I had to make in the past; while I hope to not be interviewing anymore in the near future, I now have a very good story on this.

After I decided to start my post-MBA career in the US, I was fortunate enough to receive offers from all of the top three consulting firms.
In the end I decided to join BCG in their Detroit office. I am super happy and excited about that!
I need to emphasize though what a tough decision this was. After a great summer and two other very compelling offers at amazing firms I had a very hard time deciding this. Therefore I want to thank everybody within and outside these firms who helped me make this decision! Very much appreciated - I owe you!

I now look forward to an exchange term in Barcelona at IESE. The downside is that my time at Ross is officially over. So it was a bittersweet feeling leaving Ann Arbor for Christmas.

Wish you all a happy 2011 and in case you like Barcelona as much as I do, come visit!
