Career Week: CA

Rich Mina of CA spoke to us. He wasn't very techinical, but he had some good advice to concider for our future careers.

Food was provided by Catering By Bryce. It was excelent as usual.

Career Week: ACS

ACS had a lot of people come:

• Michelle Martin
• Lou Dibella
• Doug Barton
• Steve Gardanier
• David Carroll
• Steve McNamara

Lunch was by Kneaders.

They ran out of food, so I went to Panda Express with Lannon. I was late to the presentation, but the speakers that I heard gave us some really good advice. Concerning ACS, I don't think that I would want to work there -- They're the company does work for gigantic corporate companies. That's not the kind of environment that I want to work in.

Oh, the best part of all is that they brought a bunch of stress balls, and stress footballs.

Career Week: IBM

Jim Reach of IBM spoke today. Food was provided by Chick-fil-A.

I didn't go for two main reasons:

1. I don't like chicken.
2. I have little iterest in IBM.

Career Week: Microsoft

Today, Chris Henley of Microsoft came and spoke to us during lunch. His speach was very interesting. He is a very passionate guy with a good set of values. He had a lot of great things to say about Microsoft as a company. I am definentally keeping the option of Microsoft as a career open for my future.

Lunch was tacos from Gecko's Mexican Grill.

Career Week: Novell

This week is career week at Neumont University. This means that at noon every day this week we will have the operatunity to listen to a guest speaker from some big-name company. Oh, and the best part of all -- FREE LUNCH!



Alan Clark and Cheryl Williams came to speak to us about some of the things that go on at Novell. I really liked their outlook on the future. Novell is highly involved in the open source and open standards community. In fact, Alan Clark's job was to be involved in a lot of the major standards organizations.

Oh, and for lunch, it was pizza from The Pie. It was good.
