He\u2019ll work in Portland and will, he says, \u201cbe supporting consumer financing receivable programs, maintaining and reporting of portfolio management performance, implementing and enhancing financial models, and supporting ad hoc tasks for our team.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe COB helped me prepare for success by providing tons of resources,\u201d he said. \u201cWhether that was clubs\/organizations, or simply bringing in industry professionals to educate us. There was always help from professors and staff members around the college. At the same time, the college held my peers and me accountable for everything we completed and continued to challenge us throughout our tenure. Everyone was very supportive throughout my time at the college. If I ever had a question, I felt as if I could go to any faculty\/staff member and they would be open to helping me out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As he prepares to start his career, Abdelrasul offered some advice for those who\u2019ll follow him in the College of Business: \u201cNever give up and always go above and beyond. Even if you have to sacrifice a few hours of your social life or sleeping schedule, it will be worth it in the end. Continue to learn and take on as many responsibilities as you can. Lastly, hold yourself accountable for everything you do, even if no one is watching.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the College of Business, we always enjoy hearing, and spreading, the news of our alumni as they take what they learned out into the working world.
