A CAMPUS.-TO-CAREER CASE HISTORY II Ed BurtnEn, ’52, watched the way job interviews were conducted before choosing his job. Let him tell you how it worked out. (Reading time: 31 seconds) “During the spring ol '52—my last year at the University of Maryland—I was in terviewed by a number of companies. I was about to get my B.S. degree in * accounting. “It seemed to me that there was a great deal to be learned from the way I was interviewed. Bell System interviewers took their time about job offers. They didn't rush me or themselves. “I had two talks with the Bell inter viewers and then was invited to meet and talk with department heads. Not only did they get a chance to look me over, but I also had an opportunity to get a clo ser look at their operation. I figured if the Bell System was that careful in se lecting its men, it is careful in other things. The interview was the tip-off. “That’s why Fm working here in Wash ington, D. C., for one of the Bell Com panies—The Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone Company. My hist job—after general training—was supervising a bill ing unit with 20 employees. , “Since then I have assisted on internal audits in all departments. I’ve helped with special studies for management and have become better acquainted with operations of the entire company. Now I’m working on the general books as air accounting, supervisor. “That Bell System interview has cer tainly meant a lot to me.” Our Reputation Rides -With You!
