Enthusiasm is Contagious

Today I head out to my first college career fair for this company. I'm looking forward to it. New graduates and interns tend to be very enthusiastic and energetic. It can be very refreshing to speak with them about positions, and their enthusiasm is contagious. Very experienced people often lose that passion for their field over time. Speaking with college students reminds me why I love working in HR and especially doing recruiting. It's nice to remember how it felt when you were graduating and entering the working world and also how far you've come from there. Also, aren't you glad you don't have to do homework anymore or study for tests? Even though I'm studying for the SPHR exam, it's much more interesting than studying for a biology exam or something like that. I can't wait to start telling those students how fabulous it is to work for Austin Industrial.
