Comm 299 Blog #2 (Aleksandar Novakovic)

    Comm 299 made me realize that I still have little idea about what I truly want in the future and offered me a great toolset of how to discover them in the future. Through information sessions, primary and secondary research, career conferences, and phone calls Comm 299 teaches many of the possibilies of how to connect to your future passion. Comm 299 reinforced my belief that I do not wish to have the pursuit of money as my main concern but to follow my passion which by itself will pay off. Phillipe’s personal experience in switching from Finance to teaching provided a real-life example of how important enjoying one’s job is. Additionally, through the practice interviews in the course I also realized that I shouldn’t be hesitant to let my personality show through even in professional settings and that my personality is a great asset to be taken advantage of. Finally, Comm 299 taught me that I there is still much I have to learn about  business etiquette. What I initially thought was a simple concept actually has strict rules on topics from how to approach groups of people to proper dining. Important skills to have in the future.
