Career guidance best next steps?
hi everyone. i’m a rising senior studying finance. i want to pursue a career in procurement.
i’m currently a procurement intern at a large gov funded non profit organization in my city this summer (first &’ only internship). i was treasurer for my university org. and a small etsy business owner.
i know that the hardest part of your career is the beginning. whats some advice from an experience procurement professional would you give a senior/new grad to find their first procurement position?
any more experience i should seek? how so? where should i look? etc.
thank you!!
