What’s been your career path at Prudential?

In June 2017, I joined Prudential as an intern in Internal Sales on the Annuity Sales Desk. In June 2018, I joined Prudential full-time as a Sales Associate.

How do you describe your role?

Assisting advisors on a day-to-day basis is at the core of what I do. I'm focused on helping our advisors develop their business.

What are some key projects that have excited you the most?

When I was an intern, we worked on a summer long project. I worked with people in PGIM with a focus on Annuities and gave a presentation in front of all interns and had to develop our own idea. We did our own video, about the life of an annuity. There were three of us on the sales desk that worked on it. I was able to work across different groups and teams within Prudential. It gave me a great line of sight into what working as a full-time employee would be like.

What is it like to work at Prudential?

It’s a very team-oriented company. When people think Sales, they might think it's competitive in nature. However, at Prudential everyone is always here to build each other up, and always willing to share insights.

What excites you most about Prudential?

The opportunity within the company - right now I'm on the Sales desk. You see a lot of people move across the organization - you're able to have growth and opportunity across the company as a whole.

What keeps you at Prudential?

The team and people, there is a healthy level of competition. I've never felt uncomfortable with asking for help. There’s room for advancement and learning labs and career development opportunities. There's also management programs to give you exposure ahead of time in order to help you get where you want to go.

How would you describe Prudential culture in one word?

Team Focused.

What do you like to do in your free time outside of work?

I'm currently training for my first full-marathon at the Philly Marathon. I've completed four half-marathons so far, but this is my first full-marathon. I also enjoy going to the shore in the summer months.
