When Dawn Choo was in college, she landed an internship at Facebook. The experience was so positive that she applied for full-time positions with Meta (NASDAQ:META) post-graduation, hoping to become a data scientist at Instagram.
Unfortunately, she didn't get an offer. Eventually, she landed a finance role at Bank of America (NYSE:BAC). While it wasn't the position she'd dreamed of, she accepted it, needing a full-time job in order to remain in the country.
