| Name: Nelson Tonn Position: Director Of Marketing Company: Fountain Tire |
|
Why did you choose a job/career in this
field? Fountain Tire
conducted an information session at the U of A for the position they were
hiring for. The two Fountain Tire
associates that put on the information session did a great job of getting many
students out for the session and they encouraged everyone to apply. The Fountain Tire associates appeared to
be great guys that loved their job and had fun doing it. Therefore, I applied. I did not set out to apply for any job
in any particular field. I more or
less studied the company. How did you find your job/Career? Through
the U of A. In fact the first
time I applied at Fountain Tire, I did not get hired. Someone else was better suited for the
position at the time. However,
Fountain Tire kept me in mind based on the first set of interviews I had with
them and they called me back and I was working for them one year later. What suggestions could you give to those
out there who would like to work for the same company or are looking to make a
similar career move? Research our

like to work for the company and how does the company's values align with
