The Atila Schools and Jobs Guide

Posted on May 16, 2020May 16, 2020 by ademidun

The Atila team and I wrote an ebook about the best Canadian Universities for getting jobs at Goldman Sachs, Google, McKinsey, Pfizer and more. It's called The Atila Schools and Jobs Guide. You know how people say that you should go to university so you can get a good job? But then no one can actually tell you objectively and using data which schools actually help you get a good job?

Best Books I Read in 2020

In 2020, society experienced a lot of change in a short amount of time. A combination of the Coronavirus, political unrest and social issues caused many of us to rethink our perception of reality. Most of the books I read in 2020 were related to understanding how to act in a fast-changing world and understanding how other humans act in such situations.

I just graduated.
