I was encouraged to bridge the connection between what I liked and what I was good at.
I began to see a clearer picture about my career path. It was refreshing to learn that my major wouldn’t limit me to a specific industry, so I decided to stop overanalyzing my major and what jobs “made sense”.
Endeavor was the turning point in my career search.
For the first time ever, I felt confident and excited about what the professional world had to offer. I began to take classes about communication, planning, design, marketing, and electives that interested me. Ultimately, through a real estate elective, I realized that the real estate development industry had all the components that I found appealing in a career. However, had it not been for my experiences in Endeavor, I do not believe I would have had the ability to rethink my approach to the job search process.
I highly recommend you participate in Endeavor
because it gives you a glimpse into the professional world, it lets you hear from alumni who were once in your shoes, and ultimately, makes you think about what type of career would bring you joy.
Best,
Pablo Mejia, MCAS '19
