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.”
