SALESFORCE ADMINISTRATOR
Salesforce is a Customer Relationship Management system (CRM) that is a crucial aspect of many of today’s largest companies. Somewhere in the ballpark of 80% of fortune 500 companies use Salesforce when interacting with clients, leads, sales, and the like. For these reasons, on top of being invested in Salesforce stock, I thought it would be a good idea to delve deeper into what this company is about. I am currently training and studying to be certified as a Salesforce administrator.
This is a goal I am pursuing outside of school. Being relatively new to the computer world, I am discovering the massive amount of opportunity out there, and am still in search of a passion in this field. I had to say yes when I was presented this opportunity by local startup, Purple Mai’a. I am currently about halfway through my training and really excited to be learning something new. I am hoping that this can translate into one of my first jobs in the computer world and earn me some connections along the way.
A lot of my learning with this project is self directed. It is helping me to understand research. It is also giving me a little drive to start considering networking, which is not something I feel specifically interested in. By taking this on and pushing out of my comfort zone, I feel I have grown immensely over the past few months and hope to continue on this path.
