It’s been 20 years since I started with ComputerTalk, so it’s an interesting time to reflect on how I got here, what I’ve done, and what made me stay.

My journey with ComputerTalk began in September 2021. I worked with a recruiting agency and interviewed with ComputerTalk for an open position on their help desk. I heard back almost immediately and started shortly after.

My journey with ComputerTalk began in the fall of 2019. As a recent university grad, I was looking for my first full-time job and came across a Marketing position posted by ComputerTalk to my school’s job search platform. I applied and was soon invited in to interview for a Sales Operations position instead. Even from my first in-person interview, I had a good feeling about the company. The people I spoke to were so friendly and easy to talk to that I already felt like I belonged there.

My journey with ComputerTalk started in summer of 2017. I finished my last year of my Software Engineering degree from the University of Guelph in April and decided to take a well-deserved break after completing my degree.

My journey to ComputerTalk started at Wilfrid Laurier University; I was in my 4th year of a Communications Studies degree and was still figuring out what I wanted to do after graduating. I decided to go to the Waterloo Career Fair to see what employers were there and what piqued my interest.

Like many university students, I am not 100% sure on the career path I want to take, but doing People Function Co-op at ComputerTalk has opened the door to a vast variety of possibilities that I did not even know were possible.

While studying physics in university, my original goal and path in life was to remain in academics, following through with my Master’s and finally Ph.D. I realized when nearing the end of my undergrad that another 7+ years of schooling wasn’t for me, and I was looking to get some real-world work experience under my belt. It’s hard to believe it’s been almost 10 years since I graduated and started working at ComputerTalk!
