Recently, I had the opportunity to speak with Ms. Tricia Gibbs
from your Software Development Department at a Careers
Networking Night at the University of North Carolina at

14. Garmin Inc. is the leader in the GPS industry with a
reputation that is unmatched. I have had the
opportunity to own two Garmin devices and have
always enjoyed reliable success with each.
Additionally, as someone very interested in the field of
Geoinformation Systems, I instinctively pay attention to
various competitors products. In my research I have
found Garmin’s team to be most impressive,
specifically their work around the Garmin Forerunner
watch line. The opportunity to learn from the best is
something that I will take very seriously if given the
chance.

16. Example
During my time at UNC, I have had a growing interest in software
development. Completing several computer science and geography
classes piqued this interest and led me to the desire to gain some real world
experience. Last summer I had the opportunity to intern at the ESRI in
Redlands, California. My position entailed developing web pages, utilizing
social media and creating slideshows publicizing the success of ESRI’s
engineers and developers. I was able to utilize my web authoring skills,
creativity and communication abilities to assist the organization in meeting
their goal to promote ESRI. Additionally, I have been involved with and taken
leadership roles. Last semester I led the web development team for the
Computer Science Club at UNC. By using my communication skills I was able
to successfully coordinate the overhaul of our web-page, coordinate a 5k
race to raise money to host a 24 hour Hackathon so classmates could
showcase their talents.
