Resumes and Interviews

College of Arts and Sciences, Liberal Arts at Cornell University

I have to be articulate. Nine-tenths of my current job is communication. Whether I’m soliciting new accounts or helping a customer decide which services to use, I have to communicate clearly. Good writing skills are also important, because when I’m writing letters and reports, I represent the company. Without the liberal arts background I received at Cornell, I wouldn’t have made it this far.
