Subject: It Only Takes One YES!
| | | | | COMING SOON OFILI's LATEST BOOK | | | | QUICK LINKS | | TORONTO, CANADA | | One of my lasting memories in college was the annual career fair. That was when students would polish up their resumes and pass it out to prospective employers for a job oppurtunity in corporate america. I attended the career fairs diligently every year and must have passed out my resume to more than a thousand companies. And each time I passed out my resume I received the same answer...NO...NO...NO...."We can't hire cause you don't have experience" or my all time favorite "We can't hire your because you are an international student." CLICK FOR FULL ARTICLE | | But despite all the no's it took only one yes to get me into the door...it was an offer that happened outside the career fair from a company that somehow believed I could be an asset to them. And that yes has been responsible for my professional career success to date.
So remember, in life we will encounter a lot of NO's but it only takes one YES! | | | ABOUT THE WRITER/SPEAKER Ofili is an internationally renowned public speaker on the college circuit.
