Riley Byrne, a senior Strategic and Corporate Communication major spent some time talking with us about how she will be using her degree to make a difference in the world through the Peace Corps.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-3149 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/communication\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/77\/2019\/12\/JgLcqYwCSq6qZo3066cWw_thumb_bc8c.jpeg\" alt=\"Rylie Byrns\" width=\"336\" height=\"336\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/communication\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/77\/2019\/12\/JgLcqYwCSq6qZo3066cWw_thumb_bc8c.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/communication\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/77\/2019\/12\/JgLcqYwCSq6qZo3066cWw_thumb_bc8c-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/communication\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/77\/2019\/12\/JgLcqYwCSq6qZo3066cWw_thumb_bc8c-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/communication\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/77\/2019\/12\/JgLcqYwCSq6qZo3066cWw_thumb_bc8c-768x768.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 336px) 100vw, 336px\" \/>How did you become interested in the Peace Corps?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I had been thinking about what I want to do after I graduate and I started to reflect on what brings me joy. I\u2019ve always known that I want to work in the non-profit sector especially throughout taking my SCC courses here at Chapman, and starting off in a corporate position didn\u2019t feel right to me. I knew then that I wanted to make a global difference. After an inspiring conversation with my sister, who is also in non-profit, I decided to apply for the Peace Corps!&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>I&#8217;ve heard the Peace Corps is very competitive.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It is! The application process was intimidating at first but I knew I had perfected a strong resume in my SCC Capstone class. I first sent in an application and resume, then after being selected, I had a two-hour phone interview at 7 am!&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>How did you feel about the interview?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I felt completely confident! Overall, the School of Communication provided me with a lot of professional skills training and thanks to the STAR interviewing technique that I learned in Professor Andrea Weber\u2019s class I felt like I really had an advantage during the process. I was able to speak eloquently about philanthropy and even discuss the growth I\u2019ve made from my failures without faltering.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Now that you\u2019ve been accepted, what will you be doing in the Peace Corps?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For now, am I&#8217;m looking forward to an assignment that I will likely receive within the year. I&#8217;m not sure where I will be placed but I&#8217;m ready for wherever this adventure takes me.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>That sounds like a once in a lifetime opportunity and quite the endeavor.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I am very excited and, yes, a bit nervous. Moving to a new country can be very intimidating to many, however, I grew up in both Taiwan and in Bangladesh, (my family is very adventurous) so I see this as the next chapter in my adventure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Do you feel prepared for the work ahead of you working for the Peace Corps?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I do. Wherever I go, I will be working with a small group of individuals and with all the classes I\u2019ve had in the School of Communication I feel prepared to join the Peace Corps team. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Over my four years, I\u2019ve maneuvered good teams, bad teams, lazy teams, rude teams, and overly excited teams. Because of the challenges I\u2019ve had to overcome in different team projects, I feel confident in my organizational skills and my communication (two pretty important things when moving to a country where you team up with people who don\u2019t share your language).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Student Spotlight: Riley Byrne
