Some of the numerous areas that the company could help me develop my career are customer relationship management, technology development, strategic planning or financial forecasting. The option to keep working for PressReader when the co-op finishes and developing a long term career for a company that is constantly growing and enhancing the publishing and technology industry, made me see myself building a long lasting working relationship with PressReader.

My mentor/Supervisor is Steve Chapman, Senior Director and Global Content Partnerships at PressReader. He is a friendly person, result driven, relationship oriented and passionate about the publishing industry. The positive attitude and enthusiasm about the PressReader project motivates others to accomplish the company goals.

I believe that the knowledge from the Master of Business Administration and the skills that I developed in my international business experiences will be an important asset for PressReader. Moreover, my hard work, ability to adapt to different situations and my capability to understand customer needs will enhance the performance of PressReader. Furthermore, the proficiency of my Spanish and Portuguese languages could help with the international communication of the company.
Lastly, frequent communication between my mentor/supervisor and myself will help accomplish short and long term goals
