Parker Steele, a student at Poole College, was able to find real-world opportunities during his time at the school. A specific event stood out to him as providing a high-impact experience that surpassed his expectations. During a recent presentation, Steele demonstrated a bot he created for the purchase-to-pay process that he learned about in an accounting class taught by Professor Marianne Bradford.
Steele’s presentation was well received by an audience of 130 business executives at NC State. He captivated the audience with his technical expertise and answered their questions effectively, leaving a lasting impression on attendees. Professor Bradford commended Steele’s performance and noted that several people expressed interest in hiring him on the spot after his presentation.
Steele took advantage of this opportunity by networking with business leaders the night before and during lunch the next day. The event focused on SAP enterprise resources planning software, and in his presentation, Steele showcased a bot he developed using UiPath’s software for robotic process automation to automate the creation of purchase orders in SAP. Although presenting to executives was nerve-wracking for him, Steele appreciated the opportunity and credited Poole College for providing him with valuable exposure to real-world experiences like this one.
Overall, Parker Steele’s experience is just one example of how Poole College can provide students with valuable opportunities to apply their knowledge and skills in real-world settings. With its emphasis on practical learning and networking opportunities, Poole College continues to be an excellent choice for students looking to gain hands-on experience and prepare themselves for success in today’s competitive job market.
