00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:01.670
>> My name is Sue Pye.

00:00:01.670 --> 00:00:05.680
I'm Assistant Director for Experiential
Education in University Career Services.

00:00:05.680 --> 00:00:09.740
And I graduated from Rutgers in 1995.

00:00:09.740 --> 00:00:14.650
Once I arrive here for work, anyway day
of the week, probably my favorite thing

00:00:14.650 --> 00:00:18.670
about this job is there's no 2 days
that are alike, which is great.

00:00:18.670 --> 00:00:22.050
Typically, I, you know, have a number

00:00:22.050 --> 00:00:24.240
of meetings I might have to
take care of during the day.

00:00:24.240 --> 00:00:28.370
I'm usually working on anywhere
from 3 to 6 projects at one time.

00:00:28.370 --> 00:00:32.460
Whether that's, you know, I'm
creating, for example, this past year,

00:00:32.460 --> 00:00:36.940
we created a new online process for our
Rutgers Internship and Co-Op Program.

00:00:36.940 --> 00:00:40.540
So we spent a lot of time having meetings;
testing out this online application,

00:00:40.540 --> 00:00:44.850
looking at content, trying to decide
if we needed to change policies.

00:00:44.850 --> 00:00:47.890
So there's usually a certain amount of
time every day for me that's administrative

00:00:47.890 --> 00:00:50.700
and definitely involves meetings.

00:00:50.700 --> 00:00:54.600
Most days there's usually a little bit
of time where I'm actually able to meet

00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:58.150
with students one-on-one, whether it's
through appointments or what we call drop-ins,

00:00:58.150 --> 00:01:02.690
where students can come for a quick 10 to
15 minute meeting with a career advisor.

00:01:02.690 --> 00:01:06.810
And then at the end of the day,
you know, probably maybe an hour

00:01:06.810 --> 00:01:11.380
or so of really just doing e-mail management
is what I like to call it where just

00:01:11.380 --> 00:01:13.640
so much e-mail, but I can't
respond to it all day.

00:01:13.640 --> 00:01:17.840
And I feel like most of my day is prioritizing
e-mail and tasks and that kind of thing.

00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:22.880
But as I mentioned, probably the best part of
my day mostly is that no 2 days look alike.

00:01:22.880 --> 00:01:23.930
It's always different.
