After graduating from [Undergrad University], I went to work for [Company 1], a top public relations firm, in their brand-marketing group. I selected Ketchum because I had previous internship experience at a communications firm and [Company 1]'s internal development programs appealed to me. At [Company 1], I was a liaison between the client and other team members. I researched media contacts, wrote reports on trends in our client's industry and organized team files. However, after six months, I realized that I did not like public relations because public relations campaigns often lack specific goals and objectives.
20 October 2011 The Bachelors Degree as a Job Requirement Being an adult and returning to college after receiving the pink slip from my employer was a hard choice I had to make. I soon found out that in this economy seven years of experience as an executive assistant, Microsoft certificates and my good attitude just wasn’t enough to get a good job anymore. I wasn’t even being considered because my resume didn’t state I went to college and received a bachelor’s degree. Going to college is a huge commitment and responsibility. College provides us with the knowledge and credibility that employers seek in this demanding world today.
I tried college right after high school but dropped out because I felt like I was wasting time and money. I told myself that when I decided what to major in I would go back and get my degree. I have been working as the office manager of a long term care facility and realized that my career path has reached its max potential with out a degree. My experience working with the accounts receivable and accounts payable and monitoring the financial process of a business has awakened my desire for more out of my career. At this point in my life I would love to move into the corporate level but need the college degree to do so.
When I began the decision making process, the problem I had diagnosed was I no longer wished to be away from my family for long extended periods of time. I looked for alternative solutions for this problem, such as changing my military occupational status. After reviewing possible solutions within the Marine Corps, I found I would not solve the major problem I had, which was the issue of extended periods of time away from my family. Through this evaluation, I made the choice to end my enlistment with the Marine Corps. This choice was implemented and as we now know, I have been working in the civilian sector for the past 6 years.
America had not yet stepped into the war, but the population knew that America’s involvement was inevitable. Michener had to leave his responsibilities at Harvard and enter into the Navy. He was later shipped out to the South Pacific, where he was involved in numerous missions. What I find humorous is that Michener was placed in these missions only because the base commanders thought that James Michener was the son of Admiral Marc Mitscher. It was during this time of his life that Michener decided to begin writing history for the world to
Nick Adams American Sniper I originally chose to do Unbroken, but I switched to reading American Sniper an autobiography by Chris Kyle. I chose this book because I was very interested in how and what the autobiography would be in relation to the American Sniper movie. The autobiography starts off with Chris not really knowing what he wants to do with his life, until he gets involved with the Navy Seals. The rest of the book then goes more in depth into his experiences in combat and how it has, and still does affect him and his family. This book has definitely lived up to my expectations in the fact that it takes a lot from the movie and delves deeper into certain situations.
When I decided to go back to school, knew that college would help me refresh my brain in certain areas that I may need improvement on. I also returned to school because I want a job that will fit with me. Since I have been out of high school, I have had quite a few jobs. The jobs that were employed at, I knew that those jobs were what I did not want to have a career out of for the rest of my life. So, after all the different jobs I had back to back and me not being satisfied with either one.
There are only two things to do in Washington, DC when the heat of August is inexorably descending: escape to the swimming pool or the Smithsonian. I learned this lesson well when I first worked in DC, so why was I now spending my second summer in DC inside, studying organic chemistry? With my molecular models spread around me, I berated myself for my career ambivalence during the two years when I should have been taking pre-med classes-ironically, the only time in my life when I was not sure that I wanted to be a doctor. In that moment, that indecision seemed foolhardy. Now I believe that the path that I took was the best way for me to make a fully informed and committed decision to be a physician.
It was going to my future. I’m now volunteering at Tempe St. Lukes Hospital and devoting my time not only to marching band, but my career as a Laboratory Medical Technologist. When I Graduate I want to audition for the Marine Corps Band, where they will pay my tuition to Yale where I will study Medical Technology. Hopefully that’s not all. I want to help people who are in desperate need for medical needs, like in Africa.
