Tue, 10/24/2023 - 5:00pm Online Via Handshake: Registration required If you have ever heard an historian talk about the range of career outcomes available to History majors, you’ve probably heard the words “Wall Street” and “Fortune 500 Companies.” While most of your professors are well aware that this career path is open to you, very few of us can offer good, practical advice about how exactly you can leverage your History major into a career on Wall Street. Fortunately, we know of one person who CAN offer such advice! Winfield Sickles, who earned his BA in History from UGA in 2000, is now managing director of Blackstone, one of the largest private equity firms in the nation. Sickles is eager to recruit more History majors into the finance world and will be appearing as a panelist at the career event on Tuesday, October 24 (5:00-6:15 PM). ...................
