I just completed my first day at a Fortune 500 company, and I couldn't be more excited! Seven years ago, I was homeless due to mental illness, but I worked hard to regain my stability and rebuild my career. Now, I'm stepping into a role at a $40 billion global company and earning 30% more than my previous job. This morning, I found myself sitting in the parking lot of a nearby Starbucks, dressed in my gray pinstriped suit, reflecting on how far I've come. I felt a mix of pride and gratitude, but also a bit of nervousness about meeting the expectations of my new role. I know I need to perform well to secure the future I envision for myself. I'm sending positive vibes to everyone out there who is still job hunting!
