I'm sure Carson can help get your foot in the door at Bowie's at some point. Surely they will need holiday help that will allow you some time to shine as well as see if that is something you want to do long-term.

I majored in construction management and worked for a door and hardware store for three years in college. My time there was spent estimating, managing active projects, dealing with General contractors, submittals, plan reading, take-offs, etc which are basic duties for a graduate the first few years out of college. This experience gave me numerous job offers before I graduated and helped advance my career. I am only saying this so you may consider something in your chosen field for long-term benefits.

Good luck to you

Yeah something in my field would definitely be more beneficial but as an Me major I do summer internships and during the year it's tough to do something relatable besides research work. Kind of looking for that experience of being a salesman of sorts for the first time. All of my previous jobs have been either manual labor or internships

Right now I'm wishing I would have stayed away from construction.
