- 22. Stephanie Bob ZonkerDot Food Services Manager who damaged her shoulder through years of heavy lifting and can no longer keep up with the physical demands of her job. She wants to switch careers and work in retail management, but doesn’t have the experience that employers are looking for on her résumé. Stephanie is confident that she has the skills; she just needs to show prospective employers her abilities as a manager. Wounded warrior and veteran who doesn’t feel very comfortable around college- aged students in a traditional classroom. He wants to prove what he already knows from his military career, not jump through hoops and spend money he doesn’t have just to get a piece of paper. He enjoys online learning, but knows he needs lots of support because he’s never taken college courses and it’s been years since he was in high school. Zonker has been in school for eight years. He has a lot of credits, but his father is cutting him off and he needs to get a job. He wants to package up all that he’s done to show employers that he has what it takes to get and keep a day job that pays well. Spends a lot of time playing video games and texting. Her parents don’t believe it, but she has her own game company. Dot thinks college is an obsolete concept not geared to her pace and lifestyle. She taught herself programming, but doesn’t have anything traditional on her résumé to show her skills to employers and needs a credential quickly in order to get the type of job she wants and move out on her own. “Happy businesswoman” by Steve Wilson is licensed under CC BY 2.0 “150218-Z-RY818-001” by Minnesota National Guard is licensed under CC BY-ND 2.0 “Asian man face public domain image” by Steve Hillebrand, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is licensed under CC0 “Sara” by Dennis van Zuijlekom is licensed under CC BY-SA 2.0
