Sandra Peiera share her life and experience as a restaurant general manager

“It will be my 23th year since I moved to United States next Tuesday.” Said by Sandra Peiera, the general manager of TheBronzeEmpire.

I was able to catch up with her during her lunch break this week’s Monday. She told me that it is never too late to follow your passion and choose your life.

Sandra was born and lived in Brazil for 30 years. She was a ballet dancer and teacher by that time. “My family was pretty wealthy when my father was alive. He was the most famous surgeon in my hometown. I was a simple girl who only thinks about dancing. However, I could not dance anymore due to a really bad back injury.” She told me that she chose to come to United States after her dad asked her to make a decision about her future due to the fact that she cannot dance anymore.

Sandra was talking about how she started hospitality career

She was learning English and study for other degrees at San Francisco when she was 31. However, the upheaval was striking her life and makes her into the hospitality business. “My father supported me for all the school and living bills. But he had a bad apoplexy and then retired when I was still in school. The family asked me to go back to live with them, or I have to live on my own.” Therefore, Sandra still chose to stay in United Sates. She started work at few restaurants as hostess and server.

Job Search Strategy Workshop at DU

Tuesday, May 10, 2016, 10:00 A.M. At Driscol Bridge of University of Denver, the DU Career Center held a monthly activity – Job Search Strategy Workshop. It took place in room 145 of the Career Center office. The activity was open to all DU students about the effective job search strategies for students and recent graduates.

Tyler Till is the speaker for the workshop. The first topic he brought is “Get Networked”. Based on Tyler, lots of students’ first common impression is that they can get their first dream job by applying the job and sending the resumes out.

But most importantly, students will do better if they use multiple strategies and resources to make themselves “networked”. Therefore, making a game plan is the first key step: List the strategies and resources you want to use, and make a plan for how much time you’ll spend on your job search every week.
