Sheryl Jones's profile answers

I navigated through several majors before I finally found a professor and a subject I loved. Once that was settled, I did very well and liked it a great deal.

I was a library paraprofessional and computer support expert.

You must score well on employment aptitude tests.

Officially, I have provided complex administrative support to various departments. Unofficially, I have served as computer and technical support.

Be sure that you understand the trade off between job security and opportunity for advancement.

My first job was flagging people into a local flea market.

I would love to have a career working with wildlife. I have always loved animals and considering myself to know more about them than the average person.

My most influential mentor was my history professor, David McDonald, who taught me the value of critical thinking.

The first thing I would do is leave this job and either get more education or find a position that is more suitable. If I had $50 million dollars I wouldn't have to worry about how much money I made or what my benefits are.

I want to be someone who is known as an expert in several areas. I would like to be in a position where I can teach others technical skills and better ways of doing their work.
