Profile Information
- about me
- I am a Client Manager for INROADS (www.inroads.org) , a non-profit organization that prepares talented minority college students to be future corprate leaders. We do this through year-round academic coaching, leadership training and paid summer internships in a top company that will hopefully lead to a full-time offer upon graduation.
- what is your current, past or ideal job title?
- Client Manager for INROADS New York-New Jersey. I manage corporate relationships with various financial firms JPMorgan, Deloitte, Deutsche Bankm Federal Reserve Bank of New York, Citi and CIT GROUP. I am also the academic advisor for the interns that I have placed at these firms (currently 50).
- hardest or worst job you ever worked?
- About three years ago - 'Consultant' at major bank. The job itself wasn't bad but the person that I had to report to was a 'Senior Consultant' who I believe had issues with mood swings and was very insecure about anyone with a college degree. I put up with it because the job market was bad and I needed the job. Her boss wasn't very effective and I believe intimidated.
- your worst boss - what were his/her tricks?
- See above
- best career advice you ever recieved?
- Network, network, network! Celebrate your accomplishments. Be a source of information to others.
- worst career advice you received?
- Take any job that pays alot of money - Over the years I have realized that because you spend a large percentage of your life at your job, it is best if you like what you are doing and even more so if you have a passion for it.
- what are you looking for in your next job?
- I actually like my job but if I get downsized again, I would like to continue working in academia and working with youth.
