Vice President of Rail Station Management
I oversee station cleanliness, rail systems customer service, and our laborers and groundskeepers.
Here's the first step for college students
I recommend finding an internship. Internships are invaluable for gaining more specific insight into a career or industry. For example, you may know that you want to work in the transportation industry but you don't have a good understanding of what that means. Interning can help you decide if you want to specifically go into rail operations or finance or safety. Internships also help you learn how to work in professional environments in general.
