On a management track at Bank of America
Aaron Reed went from temp to full-time to two employee achievement awards at Bank of America in Dallas, with his supervisor describing him as on a management track.
“Aaron is one of my 'go-to' people in the office. He's on a management track here which may come sooner than later.”
Aaron Reed felt employers were not giving him a fair chance because of his lack of experience. Rather than be defeated by it, he was motivated by it.
When he arrived at Bridges, he was dressed in a suit and tie, determined to land a professional job.
Bridges was starting a partnership with Bank of America, and Aaron landed an interview and a hire. After three months on the job, he moved from temp worker to full-time employee with a raise and full benefits.
More than three years later, Aaron has earned two employee achievement awards. His supervisor calls him a go-to person in the office, on a management track.
Stories like this happen because of partnership.
