-: I graduated with a major in IT,
a specialization in web applications
and a minor in business.
So I had a little bit of everything
because I know I wanted to work with people and technology.
I'm still not quite sure what I wanna be when I grow up
but I know that as long as I keep trying new things
I will find what I wanna do.
I was offered a position in their leadership development
for their JJT Technology Organization.
So one of the biggest I would say
if you wanna be in a role where you can make
the decisions on what you work on
or what direction even the organization goes in,
you're definitely gonna need those leadership
and development skills.
So the biggest thing I could suggest is get into
the positions on campus where you
can actually develop your skills.
The best thing you can do in college
is try pretty much everything that you possibly can,
you know, go to a club
that you've never thought you would go to,
go get your resume reviewed by that professor
that you hate,
most likely they'll tell you the things
that you need to hear even
though you don't wanna hear.
It's to take that class that was recommended,
but you don't really know what it's about.
It really is to try all these different things
and find the thing that you like the most.
I was so set when I first got into NGIT
on doing something with graphic design,
I thought that was gonna be my passion.
It turns out it wasn't.
It was more of the innovation technology
and the UX and UI design.
Still graphic but not quite so.
You're never gonna find that thing
that you really like until you actually go find it, so.
