One thought on “Potential Employers- Week 4

  1. Joshua,

    I found the options you provided to be very resourceful and non-traditional which I rather enjoy! I can tell that you chose options that focus on technology methods and securities. I would recommend adding the company websites to your post to ensure we are directed to the correct employer pages.

    Questions I might ask are about travel or required trainings/certifications they may require.

    If any citations were need to also include those and place them at the bottom. Even re-wording something that could be found on the website would need to be cited like founding dates.
