BMA: Experiences At Manpower

       Today I am writing about my experience at the BMA event. I am so glad at went! It may have been late, and the drive over may have been long, but it was well worth it! I wish the interviewing process would have been longer; I had gotten such valuable feedback in those quick five minute conversations. Looking at my interviewers and their status made me want to succeed even more! I had gotten such good evaluations and that definitely made all the hard work I've been doing worth it. The Resume Reviewing was interesting, and I wish I would have had more time in that activity as well. I was surprised by how much the woman wanted to change up my  resume, but I definitely respect her opinion.
    It was also interesting to hear our teacher was ahead of the curve in terms of social networking, considering that even Marquette and UWM hadn't thought about that in their curriculum.
I would definitely consider going to this kind of event again!

The P.R.Student

                  Hi! My name is Jennifer Abaroa, but you can call me Jenny. I’m junior at University Of Wisconsin-Whitewater and I aspire to make my career as a Public Relations professional. I love meeting new people and just helping people in general, and I feel like a career in P.R. would allow me to help people and help me make connections at the same time. My goals in life are to have a successful career as well as a healthy and happy husband and child in the future.  If I were to pick today what "sector" of Public Relations I would like to work in, I would most likely pick a Non-Profit. I personally think my strong work ethic and empathetic nature would help me in this field, and that my past volunteer experiences would help me as well.

I am quite comfortable with the thought of working with people and that is why I think that this would be a great career for me. I work well under-pressure and I am used to obeying authority figures at my previous jobs, so this should be no different. I look forward to all there is to learn and all the people I am going to meet! I am definitely looking forward to my future!
