20/20 Vision Conference

Overall I thought that this was a great conference. The speakers were very knowledgable and well chosen. I particularly enjoyed Alejandro Reyes and "How to Change the World in 15 Minutes". He was very honest and real about his experiences. He also explained how to get to where you want to be, and what steps it takes to get there. I also enjoyed Jeff Rogers, the CEO of OneAccord. I found it a very thoughtful presentation and was also willing to answer how to balance work and personal family life, as he was a man with a huge family and has faith there too.

Interview

I believe I did very well in my interview. I felt very composed. If I were to change something, I would add more examples. I would also reference more college things than high school achievements. Finally I would push my two other camp jobs too.

Answering Inerview Questions

You say that you play Volleyball. What did you learn from volleyball that relates to this job?
While playing volleyball I learned a lot about working as a team. I learned how to work with all types of personalities which helps in any sort of job working with groups of people. I also learned how to work towards a goal, and the means in taking steps to reach goals.

How does your education or experience relate to this job?
My education is deeply connected to human relations, which in a job such as this, is very important. I gained knowledge about all types of communication, and a lot about human communication, which is a foundation in communicating in any situation. In this job, there is a lot of human relations, which I have learned about through courses taken and experience in my internship.

Do you have any children?
What I think you are trying to ask by that is if I would let my personal life interfere with my work, and I can assure you I keep my work and personal life completely separate from each other.
