I’m back. After a busy three weeks of work abroad I’m back in the US. I got back last night and will start my new position tomorrow. So lets go over what I’v been doing for the past two weeks. Well for the past two weeks I was in Luxembourg. I was at a company called SES, you can look at my previous posts to learn more about them. For a week an a half I was in the vendor management department what they do is manage all the things that need to be purchased with company money. While I was there I had meetings with all the people in the office where they would tell me what they do and how they do it. Each person had a different categories of items that they were responsible for. For example there’s travel and entertainment which is responsible for flights, car rentals, all expenses occurred while traveling, and the company credit cards. Then there was someone who did all the day to day items that the company would need. Then there were the people that deal with the big ticket items. While I was there I also consolidated a bunch of excel files for them. Then for two days I was in corporate development. More specifically the Mergers and acquisitions department. This was very interesting because they showed me some of the tools that they have to value other companies. For these two days I had an assignment to research two companies and deliver a short report on them. I can’t actually tell you any information about it because it is “Confidential” and could be considered “Insider Trading”. But now I’m back in the US ready to start a company called Nurses and Co. working in the marketing department.

For my senior project I will be at many different companies. I will be going to Semco and working in their retail / promotional division. After Semco I will be going to Ireland to work with my Uncle who owns a financial firm. There I will be able to learn what it takes to own your own business. After I leave there I am going to Luxembourg to work with my other uncle who works for a company that controls satellites. I will then come back to the U.S. and work at a company called Nurses and Co. I will be working with one of their graphic designers / marketers. I am pretty excited for all of this.
