Well Fargo Personal Statement Sample

But as I prepare to graduate from college, I have actively pursued roles and opportunities in my organizations and other areas that I believe will prepare me for my future challenges. Firstly, my involvement in the

At the age of sixteen I began working in the family business doing loss mitigation. I advanced my knowledge in the mortgage industry by working at various law firms as well as mortgage companies, building a career in loss mitigation that I knew I would have regardless of my relationships or the path that college took me. While I was taking six classes a semester at UNF and working as Warden for Alpha Chi Omega, I was also working forty hours a week to support myself financially.

I will be attending Mississippi State University and majoring in business; in hopes of becoming a personal financial advisor. While attending college, I plan to gain a vast number of tools to guide myself and others to a greater financial state. I also plan to become a certified educator because in our area the occupation is vital to the development of our youth. Benjamin Franklin said, “An investment in knowledge

I used to think the only road to happiness was having a fancy degree from a private school which would lead to a life of luxury and ease. I thought that if I became a doctor, I could be happy because my work could be my family. I never wanted a family when I was younger, so I thought a doctor’s schedule could fill my days. Also, I never thought about the reality of going to school for twelve years and the debt that endeavor would eventually accumulate. Over the course of four years I have spent in high school, my plans have changed into a realistic career

For nearly five years since my parents’ divorce back in high school, I had always felt that working to pay some of my bills relieved the burden of my father after filing for bankruptcy as a result of this divorce. That is why I had chosen to start at the community college and it had seemed that having a part time job and studying wasn’t going to be an additional burden for either me or my father. However, transferring to the university setting did prove to be more difficult than I had anticipated. As a result, I found myself choosing work over school hoping to at least get by with some additional bills and my schoolwork load but I was terribly misguided by my choices. I felt so ashamed of myself of allowing that to happen the first time around at UTSA during the fall semester that I wanted to prove that I could do better during the spring semester by tapering back on my hours at school and at work. Then I had discovered, even in my efforts that I have overcome some obstacles during the spring, I had finally realized that I was suffering from a very long and buried depressive

I have persevered through the most rigorous academic course load available to students at my school. I am one of only two juniors to be in AP Calculus BC. I will study Multivariable Calculus, Differential Equations, and Calculus-based Electricity and Magnetism Physics at my local college in my senior year because I have accelerated past the math and science timeline for my school. When I graduate I will have taken over 25 AP and college courses. I have leadership positions in every facet of my community. Any spare time I get is allotted to volunteering. I provide as much time as I can to organisations and groups which provide equitable circumstances for disenfranchised and needy

When it comes to education, it is never too late for a second chance. And although returning to school as an adult may be one of the most challenging ways to advance your career, it can fortunately be one of the most rewarding. Success however, is not always guaranteed. To flourish as an adult student requires the tenacity and dedication necessary to overcome the countless obstacles that block the path of success. While the severeness of each obstacle may, financial considerations are generally a momentous dilemma for most returning adults. In addition to financial woes, time consistently outflows its limited supply when prioritizing a schedule to include school, work, and family obligations. When the stress of these elements is enhanced with tight deadlines and unyielding assignments, the whole process can feel overwhelming and futile. Still, undeterred by the unending supply of stressful situations, the rewards are tremendous for those that persevere.

One of my greatest accomplishments was graduating from the University of Northern Colorado with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration including an emphasis in finance. While working a full-time job and juggling school activities I completed my degree in three and a half years. My grandfather who was once a Dean of Educational Services at Miami University encourage me along the way. Completing my degree and starting a career in Banking at Wells Fargo brought an abundance of pride to my family. Starting as a Teller I worked my way up to become a Branch Manager in four years. After devoting ten years to Retail Banking I transitioned into Business Banking. Within six months I became a Business Banking Administration Manager,

Who would have thought that a sudden mandatory security lockdown at my summer internship at the Depositary Trust & Clearing Corporation would be the answer to all of my career questions. Growing up with four older sisters who are all extremely successful and happy in their chosen careers, I was eager to start finding my niche and my purpose. I had a thirst for knowledge and understanding of the world outside of my little town in Staten Island. This eagerness helped me land my first real-world learning experience. I was thirteen years taking classes at a performing arts school in New York City and the manager of the school asked if I would like to shadow and assist the marketing manager of the school to gain an understanding of the Marketing industry. This opened my eyes to a different field and I was eager and ready to learn more. For weeks I applied online to several different companies seeking internships. I was surprised to receive an interview request from Downtown Magazine. I was shaking and petrified as I made my way to the offices of Downtown Magazine but the CEO loved me and offered me the position immediately after my interview. To her surprise, when she asked

In the last ten years my life has been more than challenging. In 2006 my oldest son committed suicide at sixteen-years-old. It took me sometime to pick myself up, and decide to move on, but I have two younger children depending on me so I had no choice. I put my faith in goodness and prayed for strength to move forward. In 2014 my divorce was final, and being a stay at home mom for twenty-seven plus years, left me with little stability or independence. Being a single parent I knew I had to find employment, I applied to many companies for a job only to be told I had no experience. I knew I needed an education to be able to provide for my children. Going back to school, and getting an education, is providing me with the independence and a strong future for my family. Having been out of school for more than twenty years has brought challenges I didn’t contemplate, but I’m a fighter and I don’t plan on giving up. It is my opinion a non-traditional student has more trials than the average student. I am almost expected to have more knowledge of a subject being older, and have possibly worked in the field I am studying. I am

After I graduated high school, I had a plan to take a year off and work to earn enough money for college. I was employed quickly, however, my wage was abysmal and the hours were undesirable. I sunk into a rut. At this point in my life, I felt like I became another lifetime retail employee. The dream I had of being in the medical field was overshadowed by the feeling of disappointment and hopelessness. I expected to be out

I am certified residential real estate appraiser and have my own company in Bay Area for the past 10 years. Getting a degree in Business Administration was a part of my long term goal to become an Appraiser General. So far, I plan to proceed with my goal; however, shortly after graduation I have received several attractive job offers that tempt me to change my plans. The degree definitely opened new avenues in my career.

“Opportunities knock at the strangest times, it’s not the time that matters, but how you answer the door”. Gray, Steve. Brain Dash. For several years I’ve worked fast paced, time-consuming, high stress leveled jobs. Returning to college was always a thought but never realistic. Three months ago I was promoted to a position that provided me with the availability to explore my options and long-term goals in life. Considering all the outcomes the decision to return was simple. The fundamental education I receive from this experience, will be applied towards my future vocation and daily life. Time management, Self-motivation and Ideation are a few strengths I possess that will help me succeed. Lacking drive and focus I had a brief college experience

I analyzed the situation, determined my priorities, and developed an action plan. With the help of my Microbiology Advisor, family, and friends I was able to regain my health and finish school while only working part-time. The tribulations and poor decisions I made during my undergraduate degree have been the most valuable lessons yet. Not only did I learn how my physical and mental health play a role in my success, or that the amount of time I spend on something should be directly related to its level of importance, but I learned how important it is to be brave in times of weakness and ask for help. It was extremely difficult for me to admit to my advisor and to my family that I was in over my head. They welcomed my challenges as their own and encouraged me through every bump in the road. These lessons provide me with self-awareness that better prepare me to start the next level of

With a generally improving property market, real estate managers have become more and more important in the recent times. This isn't really surprising since they handle numerous tasks that busy property owners (especially individuals or corporations who own numerous units) can't tackle on their own. For one thing, property managers are responsible for the upkeep of residential and commercial buildings, ensuring they're structurally sound and making sure that maintenance issues are taken care of. They also have to screen prospective tenants, handle lease contracts, collect rent, and keep important paperwork.
