What are my options?

Hi All,I am in an IT program(masters) in a reputed univ on the east coast. My course work includes courses in finance, accounting, OR, fin.modelling, economics and stats in addition to IT courses. I am taking up an internship with a software firm in SFO and am looking at financial firms for full-time. 1> What should I be doing in the next 4-6 months when Im looking for a very interesting and lucrative position in Chicago or NY?2> What are the avenues that I shld be looking. The career fairs in the univ attract all the big banks but they hire for a generic analyst position. If you are a HR pls feel free to PM me.kind regards,AK

If you are like me, you'll be keeping your fingers crossed that no more banks go under! Have you looked at any of the recruitment drives from the various firms - or has the graduate intake period finished in the US for the year?
