This week I was excited to hear from Andrea Boland, working in digital marketing events for the entertainment industry. Upon reading her biography, I was very interested in the experience she had around the world upon finally returning to Canada. I was very interested in hearing more about that as I also would love to go to school abroad and learn about different cultures and learn to speak different languages. Although I was very excited to hear from her, her video was unfortunately not available on the course link, leading me to learn about Marco Renda.
Marco Renda is a graduate of Schulich School of Business at York University. Something that he learned he was very interested in through his tidies was partnerships. At the beginning of his career, he was working a lot on the strategic development of these partnerships. Something very interesting is that he started as an intern and learned as he went along to finally land his career.
The story of how he became an intern at MLSE was also a very interesting story to hear about because he never thought it would be something that would immediately happen.
During his studies at Schulich, he was shown the MLSE case competition, putting together a real case study and showing MLSE to review. Through this case study he got the foot into the door which led him to his internship and from that point on he excelled in his career to where he is now.I find this story very inspiring to get involved in clubs and network myself to hopefully also get recognized by companies I dream of working for. Hearing his story really changed my aspect on this and I will never forget what he did to achieve his career.
