Negar Mohammadi writes of her new job: I'm working for Accenture, a consulting company, in New York and as they saw on my internal resume that I had majored in French, they assigned me to a project in Paris working with the Galleries Lafyette. I was here once a few weeks ago for a week and now I'm here for about a month, living in a hotel. I feel like Eloise! But a corporate Eloise! The consultants I'm working with have been doing this project with them for a few years now so I just jumped on to assist in presentations and meetings, doing a lot of translations and presentations. All in French! I can honestly say, Madame Porter, that the vocabulary and subjects we covered in French for Business have come in handy more than I ever imagined!!
