Most people graduate college and don't have a clear direction on where to go with their education and degree to succeed in professional work. Joel Thacker, an Account Executive at IT Outlet, was experiencing this same feeling.
After I graduated from college with my business degree, I didn't know what I was going to do, said Thacker. I've always been good with technology and figured working at an IT company would make sense.
Thacker struggled to find employment with his degree and was offered an opportunity as an Account Executive at IT Outlet. Since 2020, Thacker has seen major growth in his profession and himself.
Since starting at IT Outlet, they've taught me more about the business world than four years of college was able to, said Thacker. I learned so much about myself and what I value in an organization.
IT Outlet focuses on building a culture that CARE's about our employees and helps each person create the most elite version of themselves.
Having a team behind you that wants to see you succeed and grow as a person is something you won't find in many organizations, and it's something I've really come to value since working at IT Outlet, said Thacker.
