Hi Jessica,

I guess the only reason I am applying is because I studied Journalism. originally am an Engineer and is right now studying in a Left learning institution (Masters of Sociology, Univeristy, New Delhi, India) which studies markets just to criticize them. I don't read much of the magazine that you mentioned in your job requirement article but yes I do have an analytical mind and I understand what one event in one country means to markets all over the world.

I know I am not tailor made for the job and I just have 3 months after May 5th before I resume the new semester here. Nevertheless, this looked interesting.

It was fun applying!

Thanks and regards,

Tami Rama
