What I’ve taken from this assignment

This assignment has taught me that there’s different jobs out there, no
matter what field/ industry you’re interested in, you can always use the
information you had learned during this semester relating to technology
in your job. I also had found out that these IT related jobs in retail pays
really well and are usually very similar to each other regarding soft
skills and the technical skills. This assignment was definitely helpful
because it serves as a job hunt for me, a soon-to-be B.A graduate in
Business. It showed me what jobs are out there, how much they pay,
and what is required of me both in my soft skills and technical skills, in
which I had already taken some classes in.
