<Title>Intern of the Week: Gretchen Quiteles for HAPP</Title>
<Tagline>Learn about Gretchen's experience at the APHL!</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <p><strong><span>Name: </span></strong><span><span> Gretchen Quiteles</span></span></p>
    
    <p><strong><span>Internship, Co-op or Research Site: </span></strong><span> Association of Public Health Laboratories (APHL)</span></p>
    
    <p><strong><span>Major(s)/Minor(s): </span></strong><span> Health Administration and Policy</span></p>
    
    <p><strong><span>Expected Graduation Year: </span></strong><span> December 2014</span></p>
    
    <p><span> </span></p>
    
    <p><strong><em><span>Briefly describe your internship, co-op, research, or service-learning opportunity, including your day-to-day tasks, responsibilities, and assignments.</span></em></strong></p>
    
    <p><span> When I come in I assist Hilary Strahota, the Senior Specialist of Communications. Since I've started I have transcribed an audio interview she had with one of the Emergency and Preparedness personnel from the CDC (Center for Disease Control). I have also been helping her keep track of the publications for the upcoming fiscal year. A big project I will be working on throughout my internship is sorting through all the photos the association has had since the beginning and determining which ones will be used for future publications. Responsibilities I have is to assist with the APHL twitter account, help proofread and edit publications, research images for articles and create weekly e-newsletter updates when needed.</span></p>
    
    <p><strong><em><span>Describe the process of obtaining your internship, research, or co-op opportunity.</span></em></strong></p>
    
    <p><span> This past summer I was on many job search engines and learned about Indeed. I didn't think I would be able to find an internship to my liking but when I found the internship position I applied immediately. When they sent me an e-mail about a phone screening for the position I prepped myself. I did the same prep for the team interviews that followed. I usually prep by reading through my resumes, reviewing my LinkedIn profile and thinking about my past leadership skills in organizations. After I prep I think of possibly interview questions and create answers that would strengthen my application. 
    
    But before the phone screening and interviews, I always sat myself down and took a deep breath so I could relax. That's how I knew I wanted the position the most and it definitely helps.</span></p>
    
    <p><strong><em><span>Which of the following resources did you use to find your current experience?</span></em></strong></p>
    
    <p><span> Indeed.com</span></p>
    
    <p><strong><em><span>What have you enjoyed the most about your position or organization/company?</span></em></strong></p>
    
    <p><span> I really enjoyed learning how influential this association is to public health. I never knew that this association is the reason why the CDC receives funding and how they retrieve the data needed to send out the public. Every time I come into the office I feel as if I learn something new about current public health issues and I love it!</span></p>
    
    <p><strong><em><span>What have you gained from your experience that you could not have gained from another opportunity?</span></em></strong></p>
    
    <p><span> Everyone in the workplace has their own work ethic and personality that creates a team. With each personality it can really strengthen a team. Diversity is what is needed the most to achieve a lot.</span></p>
    
    <p><strong><em><span>What advice would you give to another student who is seeking an internship or similar experience?</span></em></strong></p>
    
    <p><span> Always listen to your gut. Never give up applying to places. I was rejected by many internships that I thought would be perfect for me and when I got the offer for APHL I was happy the other places rejected me.</span></p>
    
    <p><strong><em><span>Please provide a short quote about what you liked most about your position / earning internship credit / the internship placement process.</span></em></strong></p>
    
    <p><span> Working with an open mind can take you further than you can imagine.</span></p>

    <p><strong><span> </span></strong></p>
    
    <p><strong><span> </span></strong></p>
    
    <p><strong><span>Q: Where have you earned your college degrees?</span></strong></p>
    
    <p><span>A:Loyola University MD
    University of MD, University College
    University of MD, Baltimore County (Go Retrievers!)</span></p>
    
    <p><span> </span></p>
    
    <p><strong><span>Q: What program(s) did you study? How did you choose your major?</span></strong></p>
    
    <p><span>A: M.A. in Education/School Counseling (Loyola). I wanted to pursue a second career in counseling. I realized that I had a passion for helping others realize their natural gifts and pursue their dreams.
    
    M.S. in Computer Systems Management (UMUC). My goal was to stay cutting edge in the technology field, and increase my career opportunities.
    
    B.S. in Information Systems Management (UMBC). The area of IT was a fast growing field. I had strong technical and analytical skills and enjoyed the combined focus of business and IT that the program offered.</span></p>
    
    <p><span> </span></p>
    
    <p><strong><span>Q: Tell me about the job and internship process when you were in
    college. Were you able to find job/internship positions that were related to your major or your career interests?</span></strong><strong></strong></p>
    
    <p><span>A: Yes, I was able as an undergrad to find lots of Co-op opportunities! That is what  excited me about going to UMBC. The school was "cutting edge" in this area in the mid '80's. I was able to get a co-op position in IT at NASA, and only delayed my graduation by 1 semester. As a result of having impressive work experience on top of a strong academic background, I got a job as a systems consultant with a Big 8 Accounting firm immediately upon graduation. I owe tremendous thanks to UMBC, and Dr. John Martello for making those opportunities possible.
    
    Internship opportunities were incorporated into the School Counseling Masters' program at Loyola. It was a great opportunity to work in a variety of school settings, so that I could get a feel for what was the best fit for me once I graduated.</span></p>
    
    <p><span> </span></p>
    
    <p><span> </span></p>
    
    <p><strong><span>Q: What is the best piece of advice you have ever received?</span></strong></p>
    
    <p><span>A: "Wherever you go, go with all your heart."   -Confucious</span></p>
    
    <p><span> </span></p>
    
    <p><strong><span>Q: Why should students visit the Career Center?</span></strong></p>
    
    <p><span>A: AS SOON AS THEY GET TO UMBC, they should meet with us to learn about important steps they should take to discover their interests and strengths, and plan their career. This process begins immediately, and continues throughout their time at UMBC.</span></p>
    
    <p><span> </span></p>
    
    <p><strong><span>Q: What is your favorite aspect about UMBC?</span></strong></p>
    
    <p><span>A: It is a high quality institution that emphasizes the importance of obtaining valuable work and academic experiences. It's also a great value!</span></p>
    
    <p><span> </span></p>
    
    <p><strong><span>Q: What is one item on your bucket list?</span></strong></p>
    
    <p><span>A: To return to Switzerland and Austria with my husband and 3 kids and "re-do" our honeymoon.</span></p>
    
    <p><span> </span></p>
    
    <p><strong><span>Q: What is one aspect of the DC/Baltimore area that you often explore?</span></strong></p>
    
    <p><span>A: I love to go to the Baltimore harbor with my yellow lab, and anyone else who wants to join me, and walk along the water from Harbor East to Canton.</span></p>
    
    <p><span> </span></p>

<Title>Diversifying the Workplace: Diversity Recruitment Event</Title>
<Tagline>Susanna Campbell, Career Peer Liaison to CNMS</Tagline>

    <div class="html-content">
    <h4>Diversity Recruitment Dinner</h4>
    <h6>Wednesday October 22, 2014<br>5:30 – 8pm<br>The University Center Ballroom</h6>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <em>All students are welcome to attend this dinner. Come and meet with employers who are looking to hire UMBC students. Please <a href="http://careers.umbc.edu/news_events/diversity.php" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">register</a></em> <em>ahead of time.</em>
    </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <strong>Who:</strong> Employers who are looking to diversify their workforce will be on hand to discuss career opportunities within their organizations. A few of the organizations attending are Morgan Stanley, NSA, CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield, Urban Teacher Center, and Public Defender Service for the District of Columbia.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <strong>What:</strong> Munch on your free dinner and mingle with employers who are interested in hiring students in your major. Get career advice from key panelists and successful UMBC students from organizations such as: T. Rowe Price, Exelon, Peace Corps and GE. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong>How to prepare:</strong></div>
    <div><ol>
    <li><span><strong><a href="http://careers.umbc.edu/skills/research.php" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Research.</a></strong> Know who is participating (the list of participating employers can be found <a href="http://www.careers.umbc.edu/news_events/diversity.php" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">here</a>) and create a list of organizations that interest you. Then research the organization and know their products/services and employment needs.</span></li>
    <li><span><strong>Dress professionally.</strong> You should wear a well-fitted, clean, and coordinated suit (or, if you are coming from class, business casual if fine).  Any patterns should be simple, do not wear perfume or cologne, and tuck hair away from your face. Shoes should be close-toed, polished and neat, and if you wear heels they should be no more than three inches tall.</span></li>
    <li><span><strong>Bring several copies of your <a href="http://my.umbc.edu/news/46955" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">resume</a>.</strong> The Career Center has <a href="http://my.umbc.edu/groups/careers/news/46821" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">drop-in hours </a>M-F from 2pm-4pm in MP 212 and Tu/We 6pm-8pm in the Library Writing Center.</span></li>
    <li><span><strong>Be prepared for conversation.</strong> This event is different from the career fair in that you may talk to an employer for a longer period of time. However, you should have your <a href="http://careers.umbc.edu/skills/network/30sec.php" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">30-second commercial</a> ready and also be prepared to talk about your interests and your experiences more in depth. Prepare some good talking points for dinner to avoid long periods of silence. <a href="http://careers.umbc.edu/skills/network/tips.php" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Avoid small talk</a> and have meaningful conversations.</span></li>
    <li><span><strong>Ask questions.</strong> Have one or two questions in mind for each employer. Questions should reflect the research you have done on the employer as well as questions pertaining to your own interests. Have some general questions for employers you may not have expected to talk to, for example, “What is the work environment like at XYZ Company?” </span></li>
    <li><span><strong>Follow up</strong> with anyone you talked to through email within 24 hours. Ask for business cards while you are there; this will help you remember names and the company they represent, as well as provide you with contact information.</span></li>
    </ol></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>I am looking forward to attending myself and I hope to seeing you at the Diversity Recruitment Event as well. This is a great chance to talk to potential employers. You could possibly get a job or an internship out of your attendance. You will get great advice from employers and will practice your networking skills. The free dinner is a great incentive as well.</div>
