    “Academy Week—a week spent on the road visiting reputable companies like P&G, Kellanova, Wendy’s, GE Appliances, and ConAgra Brands—was a big turning point in my career search because I was able to get my boots on the property of potential employers, feeling out how I could fit there. Kelley, in this way and many others, has helped me discover my talents and how they would fuse with my target career.”
