Louisiana State University Job Analysis

Last year, if you were to question where I saw myself in the next few years, my answer wouldn’t have been applying to college. During that time, I had a successful career as a store manager, and for the most part, that was all I could ever see myself doing. I excelled as a store manager, and I enjoyed the frequent interactions with the various diverse individuals that I got to experience. However, I was never elated nor passionate about that career choice. In fact, I can distinctively remember the moments where I would arrive home from work in the late hours of the night, pondering if this was all there was for me.

In the fall of 2012, I enrolled in North Hennepin Community College to pursue an Associate’s Degree in Accounting consequently awakening my thirst for learning. Majoring in accounting was an easy choice since I had a background in bookkeeping and I have always enjoyed working with numbers. My goal when I first enrolled in North Hennepin was to acquire an Associate’s Degree, and join the workforce, however, as I progressed closer to finishing my course there, I realized I wanted a Bachelors’ Degree since I enjoyed challenging myself and learning material that was critical to my career.

In early 2006 I was knocked off track. My little brother was killed in a car accident at the age of 17. My world went pretty dark for a while, and I dropped out of college and left my jobs. After a few months of deep grieving, I got on my feet and got a job making more money as a receptionist for a window company. I pushed my passion to the back of my brain and put the money first. I was all determined to have a “grown up job” and be on my own. This meant I couldn’t afford classes, or books. I also had to have a full time day job to afford my rent. Teaching went to the back burner for several years. I was offered higher positions at my job, and pretty soon found myself sitting in the office behind the desk from which I myself was hired. I hated it. I could sit on the computer all day long and do nothing. Most people would’ve loved my job. But I could not handle

Summary: As a High school graduate, I am looking for a job where I can use some of my experience from taking care of horses for two years, serving in NHS, and being organized focused and clean. Feeding horses includes carrying square bales, 50-pound feed bags, and water buckets. I have had ample experience keeping the barn straightened, and I am very capable of manual labor. Though most of what I do is manual labor, I still have great people skills. I have ample experience dealing with people in numerous positions. As a member of National Honor Society, I am required to do a certain amount of community service. This includes dealing with peers in the community and serving with the heart of Christ, but it also includes working with the sponsor

After graduation, I committed myself to learning new things and more importantly to try things that intimidated and frightened me. While doing so, I searched for and found a way to make a change in the lives of those who needed help the most. I became a career advisor for one of Washington D.C’s largest workforce development projects. I was tasked with the responsibility of teaching DC’s welfare population the essential skills needed to progress in life, and succeed in the workforce. Having overcame being a learning disabled student, and traumatic brain injury I was

What are the current job specifications for the store manager job? Based on the information you have (or could have), how would you assess the validity of these specifications? What approaches would you use?

However, I wanted a well paid job as a Business Manager in one of the large research departments at the University of Maryland. This was my dream job. However, a major challenge for me trying to obtain my dream job was that I didn't have yet a College Degree in Business Administration or any related area. I was pursuing a College Degree in Business Administration but I still had many years left to complete my degree. Again, as usual, my beloved mentor Joao came to my rescue. He taught me that even though I did not have a College Degree yet there were unconventional but very effective ways to land my dream job. He told me to apply for jobs before they are ever listed. Thus, I needed to connect with people from all walks of life at University of Maryland to learn about these hidden opportunities. Then, as I developed mastery in business administration and the specific business processes standardized at University of Maryland I would continue to create job opportunities even though I did not have yet a College Degree. He insisted that these large departments will always need people who can deliver strong results. I started to get interviews at the large research departments and I insisted in my interviews, as Joao advised, that I was willing to learn and I was not afraid to constantly educate myself. This way, I landed my dream job as a Business Manager at the Astronomy Department in spite of not having a College Business Degree yet. I have been there for almost 10

Up until recently, I was like many of my peers, uncertain about what the future would hold for me. I did not know where exactly I wanted to attend school, what I wanted to study, or what I wanted to do career-wise. But, after taking high school classes like Business Information Management, Human Resources, Banking and Financial Services, and Accounting I, I found my long awaited answer, a fascination in the business and financial world. I loved attending these classes and learning new and exciting

Pamelia E. Brott, an associate professor of counselor education at Virginia Tech with a Ph.D. in Counseling and Counselor Education at the University of North Carolina, wrote the article “A Career Story Approach to Management, Business, and Financial Occupations”. The article discusses what the future outlook is on business, while giving a personal story on how to achieve a good future outlook in the field. The target audience deals with business majors in general, with some specific majors in mind. Searching for something to do for the remainder of one’s life requires a lot of thinking, which produces a large amount of stress and uncertainty. For one to be able to pick a career that he or she will find a passion for many years will never be

I have been working with Jessica Davis, my advisor, since I've been attending USF. When I finally saw my grades, we spoke about different options for me. We decided to try the petition process to see if it would help my gpa. We are also in the process of switching majors to something I would be more able to handle. I am grateful for her help as she is very patient and understanding of my situation. I plan to work with her until the day that I walk across the stage!

When I entered senior year, I entered with a “get in- get out” mentality, enrolling in the minimum amount of classes with a majority of them having to do with business and I also joined FBLA. Through FBLA I was able to become “Assistant School Store Manager” and little did I know that it would actually be a great learning experience that I have been able to continue for most of this school year. In November,

One of my teachers once said “most teachers quit after five years.” I suppose this is how I know that I picked the correct field. I have been dedicated to the education of children since 2003, when I started my degree in the subject, and when I was hired for my first job in the field. Broome Community College was the start of my education. Once I received my associate’s, I transferred to Suny Cortland to obtain my Bachelor’s degree. At Suny Cortland I graduated with a dual degree in early education, and education.

Though my academic career started later than most, I feel the life experiences I gained prior to becoming a teacher were extremely beneficial to understanding how the business world works outside of education. This has given me an ability to see things in a different light than most teachers who go directly into teaching at a young age. I graduated high school in 2000 and enrolled at Rock Valley Community College in Rockford, Illinois. During this time, I was a manager for a major electronics store. I learned a tough lesson about the ever-changing need for staff in retail and set my sights on becoming a teacher. I graduated with an Associates

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
