An Event Coordinator For Tippecanoe Villa, A Resident Home For Elderly And Disabled Individuals

I am very interested in a career field in Human Resources. For this paper, I interviewed Lillian Mannino who is a Human Resource and Personnel Manager at the UC San Diego Graduate School of Global Policy and Strategy. As a manager, Lillian serves as the link between the graduate school’s management and its employees. She is in charge of overseeing recruitment, employee relations, policy development, payroll, and benefits. Personnel management is a special branch of management that is focus on the concerns of employees at work and their relationship with the organization. Her educational experiences consist of a bachelor degree at UC San Diego in Management Science and a professional Human Resources certificate from UCSD Extension. She has been working in the academic administration for almost ten years and earned her current position as manager through climbing up the ladder. She started off working in this field as a student affairs officer then was promoted to an administrative specialist. Her prior work experience paved a path for her to build up professional experience as well as a solid network within the UCSD administrative system.

College is an extremely terrifying experience, especially when someone doesn’t know how to maneuver around or choosing the right course or class. Furthermore, it was a great privilege to receive that first letter from The National Society of Collegiate Scholars (NSCS)., Knowing that I’ve been accepted into an honor society that chose someone like myself out of several other qualified students on my campus. That letter gave hope and inspiration for someone like myself the strength to overcome any obstacles, in addition, to being welcomed into this tremendous family that reaches far and wide to help students like myself to accomplish our goals and dream, especially being in the first generation to attend college especially an older adult continuing my

I was determined to find meaning and success within the hyphen of Afghan-American. I played for the golf team, despite being the only minority on the team. I ran and was elected to student government. I participated in the community through volunteering at a community center, and working at a pharmacy and a golf club. From all of this, I slowly saw positivity in my situation. My parents came to this country as refugees, hopeful that the land of hope would open its arms to them, and while I’ve faced challenges, the obstacles placed in front of me only added to my appreciation. It has led me to consider that while I face adversity because of my unchangeable identity, I must take advantage of the mobility college can give

I am currently a freshman at the College of Charleston and my life so far has been great! College life is quite a transition from high school, but I am definately enjoying it. The first few weeks of this semester were kind of a struggle for me because I was away from home and had to figure out how to do everything by myself. In addition to that I had to get in the routine of classes, network with new friends, and get familiar with the campus. I am also involved with our school’s Bonner Leader Program, which is a four-year civic leadership and development program highlighted by regular training and reflection activities, along with the requirement of 200 service hours per year. Through this program, I got the opportunity of interning with Coastal

Shannon Williams is an African-American male, who attends DePaul University. He’s currently a junior majoring in Communication and Media in order to pursue his dreams of working with a professional sports organization. Over the years, Mr. Williams has encountered a lot of adversity. Getting dismissed from NIU back in 2012, he fell victim to the statistic of being a college dropout. He didn’t know what his next move would be as he sat at home from the couch with no source of income, friends nor vision. Within 6 months, he started to realize that he messed up a big opportunity and took college for granted. Mr. Williams got another opportunity to enroll back in school at Wilbur Wright College, in the fall of 2012. This time around, he wrote down

My experiences at the University of Houston have greatly shaped my personal identity. I realized that my strongest attributes revolve around working with and mentoring others, including those with backgrounds and experiences different than my own. My role as a Resident Advisor was meaningful because I had a chance to work with students of different majors, classification, and ethnicity. I helped them feel comfortable in their living situation and be involved on campus. Adjusting to campus life is a difficult transition, so I became their support system. I challenged myself to form connections with each resident by finding common interests, connecting to campus resources, and educating with floor programs. This experience taught me to be more

During this internship experience, I have learned many useful skills that have lead me to be the person I wan to be today. From college classes to work experience, I now have the ability to transcend upon internship experiences that can shape my perspective of life. For my last internship, I chose to intern at The Wyomissing Home Depot Human Resources Department. The human resources associates are responsible to maintain a positive work environment among employees. For the most part, human resources associates are focused on career development, execution of learning, employment practice, staffing, recognition and reward. At my internship site, I have established a few goals for myself that will help me keep my focus on the potential career and work setting I will have in the future. The main purpose of this paper is to summarize, reflect on my different learning goals that I established at the beginning of my internship experience at Wyomissing Home Depot human resources department.

Instead of feeling pressure to conform as a student at the University of Georgia, I have found that being in college has made me value the importance of a higher education more so than I ever had before. During high school, my primary goal was to play well enough to receive a football scholarship. At that time, my focus was not on academics. However, since I've arrived at the University of Georgia, my entire concept of the value of a college degree has slowly changed. Rather than seeing just football in my future, I can now picture myself as a football player with a college degree. Consequently, instead of having a negative impact on my personal growth, college has helped me broaden as a person.

My notable academic career begins in inner-city Frederick High school, where I would grow my passion for entrepreneurship and the sciences. During my time there, I was active participant in anyway to assist my school community, be it from starting new clubs, to leading initiatives in honors societies to help our undocumented immigrant population, to captaining sports teams, all while taking the hardest course load available. I was fortunate enough to receive admission to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, where I would find my passion was not engineering, but rather entrepreneurship and law. Despite the top tier educational prospects, the school became unaffordable to me after losing my NROTC Scholarship due to an unfortunately revealed

My goal is to further develop my career, and grow up to a leadership position within a leading firm that places priority on professionalism and considers their human resources as one of their main assets. I have decided to strive for the master’s program in Human Resources Management because it fits the profile of my career goals. After 7 years of experience in the field I am confident that working in human resources is what makes me feel at my fullest potential, and a life changing decision I have made for my

As a student in the AHED program, Dr. Green upheld very high academic standards while promoting rigorous dialogue and thought. It is due to her that I felt confident enough to apply to the doctoral program in Human Resource Development at The University of Texas

The human spirit is absolute art in its distinct expression within every person. Genetics explains the reason why one is more susceptible to physical abilities, intellectual skill, or artistic talent, however all are socially accepted forms of intelligence. Yet there are certain individuals with the same capacity to interpret and collectively join contrasting people. Professionals in the human resourcing industry use such a dexterity when filling their company’s new job opportunities, in addition to maintaining the work force atmosphere, safety, and regulations. Once thought of as the employee’s special events planner, Human Resource Coordinators are now the integral part of any business conducting benefits, terminations, 401ks, accounting, and litigations. In Hoping to share some knowledge with entry level students, Red Lion Anaheim Resort’s Director of Human Resource Vanessa Miranda sits down to discuss the need to knows of the occupation.

Through my leadership experiences at SCSU, I have grown into a strong, independent, and courage woman. This past spring semester, I took the opportunity to apply and be accepted to present at M.E.Ch.A.’s national conference about my independent studies course that I developed. I never imagined to share my cultural experiences on that level and have professors comment afterward about how they enjoy my presentation. There have been opportunities where I was able to discuss with administrators among other students and our concerns on campus issues facing students of color directly to them. I have met strong, academic leaders and students at conferences that have exposed me to love and embrace my cultural identity, indigenous roots, femininity, strength, and personal struggles. The education program gave me the opportunity to continue learning in another location for student teaching, which again has exposed me to new experiences, people, environments, and academic challenges. I no longer view challenges as obstacles, rather I view them as tests to help me remember how worth it, the path I am on and pursing, is to me. When I first started my freshman year in fall 2012, I could have never imagined that I would do and come as far as I have. I remember when I began this journey, I said to myself that I would graduate

Now that I am reaching the end of my undergraduate career I feel like it’s fit to reflect on how far i’ve come and some high and low points during this time of my life. Some people may say that these four years of college are the most wonderful times of their life, and for the most part that is correct. But there is this whole other part of college life that is super stressful and even scary. During this paper I will address my personal development and how certain experiences played a role in those developments. Even though I feel like i’ve grown a lot and have developed and learned new things, I have run into some issues. Those issues being family/culture, social and emotional growth, intellectual growth, values and beliefs, citizen and community member.

In order for me to talk about my undergraduate experience, I first need to tell you of my path getting there. Growing up in a home with a recidivist father and a mother that struggled with drug addiction, in an environment rife with crime, where poverty was ubiquitous, and despair was omnipresent is better imagined than experienced. Yet, my parents were the most encouraging people I have ever known. In retrospect, their words of encouragement barely hit their mark for obvious psychological reasons known as cognitive dissonance. How was I supposed to be successful in the pursuit of my dreams in an environment where nobody was successful in the pursuit of theirs?
