We are not islands. We never know who holds the key to the next opportunity. Thanks for helping drive that point home. And thank you for taking time out of your day to visit AND share. Hear that? That's the sound of both our networks expanding because we've started the connection here. It's just that easy. :) Janet –

Whitney, an accounting major, was on her way home for Easter break and stopped at a Sheetz to gas up and grab a snack. The lines were long and Whitney started a casual conversation with the man in front of her. She mentioned she was on her way home from college. He asked about her major and she said--financial accounting. He remarked that he was a partner in a regional firm in Baltimore. Whitney inquired about any opportunities for a summer intern. Long story short--Whitney was hired as a summer intern and after graduating in May was hired as a full-time staff accountant. Another young lady, Nicole, was in Thailand for a year after graduation and was struggling to find a job in the communication field when she returned. Nicole's roommate was on a domestic flight and struck up a conversation with the woman seated next to her. The woman just happened to be HR Director for Time Warner in NYC. They talked about the company and the positions she recruited for. The roommate mentioned that Nicole would be a perfect candidate with her education and international experience and they exchanged contact information. As you may guess--Nicole is now happily employed as a Senior Analyst for Time Warner, Inc. in NYC.
