Market reputation and prestige of a firm may be determined through on-line research, and conversations with individuals working in your target industry.

Climbers' Joblogs at Car Max:


June 2009

Since 2001, I have served with a Fortune 500 company. However, the company reorganized and my position was eliminated last month. Now I'm off to find my next adventure. I am interested in securing a position in Human Resources which allows me to focus on organizational and associate development. I truly enjoy watching people grow and facilitating group dynamics. It is very empowering for me to see people progress individually and as a group.

In May, I proudly graduated magna cum laude, with a degree in Human Resource Management and a minor in Leadership. It was an exciting time for me and I relished in the accomplishment. During our senior celebration, I received the Jean H. Proffit Student Service award and was surprised when my name was announced. This award is presented to a graduating senior recognized by his/her peers for outstanding service to the University community.

I have had alot of time to think about where I would like to work next. I'm intersted in working in the Virginia beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake or Washington DC area. My interests lie in locating a position in a national retail company or in the aero-space/defense industry.
