LinkedIn Thank You from LAHS AVID
What stories or advice stood out to you the most?
Zach's story was the one that really stood out to me. Like him, I don't live with my dad, but his life seemed more rough. It showed me how even when his life was rough he did not give up and always tried in school. At the end, after trying and trying he got a great job in Linkedin. The story from Zach stood out to me the most because even though he didn't grow with a father and how the same thing happened to his little brothers, he did not give up on himself or his brothers. He worked hard for what he wanted. I like Zach's story of when he went from a kid without a father, to a man with people respecting him for his kindness. He mentioned many hardships that he had went through, but he made it to LinkedIn, and it gave him a opportunity to succeed in life.
Orlando's story stood out to me when he was in school, he would get his friends grades that were good and he would cut them out and put them on his. He would then scan it then send it to his parents. Orlando's personal story stood out me because he said that he had bad grades during high school but he was able to turn that around, go to college, and work at LinkedIn. His personal story showed me that you can never let something get in the way of what you dream about and that with a little hard work you can accomplish anything. Loni's, the recruiter, story stood out to me most, when she talked about how she didn't go to college and still got to work in a such great company.
Everybody is unique. There is only one of you. So give the world whatever it is that you have to offer. To try your hardest even if you get bad grades and other problems that are happening to you. Rebeccas story stood out to me because I was surprised in how she studied history in the middle east and how she ended up working at a Tech place like Linked In. It showed me how you don't have to be a technology person to work at LinkedIn.
Choices are everything.
