I develop strategy for card associates to achieve their community engagement goals.
They'd mostly see me at home on my laptop communicating with internal and external customers via phone, email, communicator, or virtual meeting as well as creating, approving, and editing volunteer events in our system.
Here's the first step for middle school students
You need an undergraduate degree for this work at Capital One. English and Math are critical, and any class that allows you to think critically, challenge norms and allows you to test, learn, fail and move on will be incredibly helpful. Keep grades up starting in middle school as college will be more accessible and cost less (you can get scholarships) if you maintain strong grades and attendance. Give back to others, and make a difference as you never know whose life you'll touch.
