Dealing with being let go from first professional job after college

[theloudestbomb]

I'm guessing all these private sector jobs use SAS instead of Stata because of data-set size? Maybe it's because I learned Stata first but I find SAS to be more cumbersome. This is coming from an urban planner perspective so I haven't dealt with big financial datasets before.

Happy to hear about the new job but did you consider which job would help you lose your virginity? I'd put MN on the bottom of that list. CA would have been a far better choice with their open minded women. Plus everyone there thinks all Indian guys are tech billionaires.

Sorry, don't want to hijack thread, but since your question is somewhat answered and we came upon the topic of recommendation letter, I have a question regarding how important a recommendation letter is. In addition, I have a weird situation right now where I am going back to school after an internship but the partner of the firm agreed to write a recommendation letter for me -- except there is no specific job that I am applying to. How should I ask him to phrase the letter -- should he just write a character recommendation letter? I will be applying to the same firm in a different city in about a year

Thanks guys! Would be best if i can get the answer by tomorrow

Sorry if I am a bit negative but it looks like you r not that interested in your specialty in general, judging by the feedback your were given by your Start-up boss. It sounds like you are the type of guy who just wants to show up do the minimum and pretty much stay invisible. I hope I am wrong.

Ultimately, I did mention that I wasn't happy at the company, that I felt the last two years of my life had been a 'waste of time,' and that I was actively looking for new opportunities.

lol. Made me think of this:

Interviewer: What would you describe as one of your weaknesses?
Job seeker: Honesty.
Interviewer: I don't think honesty is a weakness.
Job seeker: I don't give a **** what you think.
