It’s important to find a way to maximize every opportunity you get to interview for a role. I chose to minor in sports management to complement my marketing major and help me stand out amongst a saturated candidate pool. The credibility was enough to allow me to get a face-to-face interview with the Atlanta Hawks, where I was able to confidently approach the interview with what I learned both in and out of the classroom during my time at 亚洲博彩平台排名. I’ve been working in professional sports ever since.
