Personal Narrative: My Experience With EY
I asked Mr. Richards, what his experience with EY was like and what made influenced the changes in his career. I also asked him what advice he had for someone starting their career. I noticed similarities between his response and the advice from Mr. Yokley and Mr. Hough. All three, in different ways, said to see every day as a learning opportunity and to always be open to different opportunities. I am a planner type of person so it can be hard for me to accept things that aren’t apart of that plan but I think its important that I be flexible and open minded. I have been working on being more flexible and this semester has certainly made me grow in that regard. During my internship, I was very good at looking at every task as a chance to learn

    It was a Tuesday in February when it first happened. Unexpectantly waking up in the morning, realizing that the bottle of pills taken the previous night did not do what the Internet said they would. When you are someone like me, actions and thoughts like this occur on a daily basis. Nobody wants to live this way, constantly dreading each day and hoping the next will bring a stable supply of neurotransmitters like serotonin or dopamine. These chemicals in the brain, when in excess or in insufficient amount, cause depression. As a person with dysthymia (Eeyore Depression), everyday life is a challenge; simple tasks become strenuous, thoughts become askew from random triggers, and being understood by others is a rarity.…

    This week reminded me how amazing and important my job is. Friday was a busy day at the office; I was rushing to finish my work so I could leave on time. As I was about to leave I received a phone call from a hiring manager (Mark) with NOAA. Mark had questions about the interview process and was calling to speak to one of my colleagues. Unfortunately, my colleague was on vacation and wouldn’t be back for another week. I looked at the clock and realized it was time to go but I could hear the frustration in Mark’s voice. Instead of leaving, I spent almost an hour listening to Mark’s concerns, answering his questions, and I explained how the federal hiring process works. At the end of our conversation, Mark thanked me for my time and he told me…

    My mom has a brain tumor. She had it since 2004 and was able to get most of it surgically removed 4 years ago. But in those 11 years where she had it, I felt hopeless. She was my mom and I had to see her be in constant pain due to the seizures she would have. There was nothing I could do. The doctors in America said it was too dangerous to operate so she was forced to receive treatment in Taiwan. Because of it, I was always scared whenever I got a call from my dad. I was scared that he was calling because my mom had passed. I did not go out often because I was worried. Whenever we went on family trip, I had to be by my mom, in case a seizure were to…
