What is one of the best experiences you've had at Isenberg?

My sophomore year at Isenberg, 3 of my friends and I entered the Kohls Invitational Case Competition that was advertised on IsenbergWorks through the Chase Career Center. After submitting a 10 minute video outlining our idea to solve a real-life business problem affecting Kohls retail stores, we ended up being chosen as one of the top 12 teams out of over 200 submissions in the country! My team and our faculty advisor (Professor Weinberg) were flown to Milwaukee, Wisconsin to pitch our idea live in front of over 500 top executives from the company. Ultimately, as a result of Isenberg's incredible career resources, mentorship from our advisor, and knowledge learned from our classes, my team won first place in the entire nationwide competition!
