What is a typical day like for you?

  • Meetings, Working in Office 365 applications, conducting research, building PowerPoints, meeting via Zoom with my team members to go over goals and future updates

What is your favorite thing about your job?

  • Creating a better social media presence for my team and their partners via LinkedIn and X

What is something that you have learned that you are excited about?

  • Using the Power BI tool on Office 365 to report KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) and Metrics

What advice do you have for current students?

  • Don’t rush into a job just because you feel pressured to have one right when graduation hits. Take time to really research jobs and job titles, as well as interviewing for a role. You will be working for mostly the rest of your life, so please try to find something that you enjoy waking up to do every single day.

Something else that Taylor shared is that she gets to volunteer at Wildlife Rehabilitation Centers and as a host for Bruins and Celtics games in Dell’s company suites. She also said, “Get involved as much as you can inside and outside of work – this will help you to build a network and socialize if you are working hybrid or remotely.”
