About Anthony Navarro

Hi there! From an early age, my passion for serving others was embedded into and entrusted unto me early on. Getting involved in different opportunities to serve among different demographics and populations of people, I fell in love with how diverse God made each and every single one of us! Each person was created to be valued and esteemed highly. Therefore, getting to do so in my career day by day is an important and necessary value I seek to practice. Currently, I am service driven professional experienced in customer service, student development, administrative support, fundraising, and donor engagement. I am dedicated to the professional and personal development of others. I’m an advocate for attention to detail, customer centric communication, and stewardship. I have a deep passion for empowering and enabling others to see them attain a better version of themselves. For me, humility and teachability are some of the most important qualities for a leader to possess. Looking forward, I would like to pursue the field of counseling and/or higher education. My heart is for seeing other experiences reconciliation and restitution in mind and soul. I am looking for a practicum site where I can learn to apply my educational experience, administrative skills, and passion for caring for people to become a more refined counselor.

Experience

1. Career Center Intern

   California Baptist University

   Sep 2023 — Present · Riverside, CA, US

   I was given the opportunity to collaborate with CBU Career Center staff in order to develop students on their career journey via in person and/or online. We did so by meeting with multiple students daily via appointment and/or walk-ins, and this includes resume reviews, cover letter reviews, and LinkedIn profile reviews. For all reviews, I completed a checklist, marking \"Looks Great\" if they met the standards of the document and/or profile, and \"Needs Fixing\" if they did not, and included notes explaining what they needed to fix. I also conducted Mock Interviews, where I interviewed students, and provided them with coaching on what they needed to improve on before an interview; this allowed me to spend more time with students and to really set them up for success before a job interview for their dream job. Additionally, my role extended to helping my fellow staff, CBU\'s students, and employers at Career Fairs; tasks included helping with set-up and tear-down, directing employers to their tables and helping carry any items they brought, and checking students in and ensuring they followed the dress code.
