Friday, November 22, 1968 MAROON TIGER Page 5 Marketing at IBM “You help company presidents solve their information handling problems.” “It's a lot of responsibility. And if you need help, you always get it,” says Earl Andrews. “Because your success is the company’s success.” Earl joined IBM because he felt the career paths were very clearly marked. “You don’t have to be a technical genius to fit the job. You get the training. Then on-the-job experience. Before you know it, you’re out on your own.” Works with top management Earl works mainly with small companies— distribution houses, manufacturers, printers, warehouses, electrical supply houses and similar organizations. “I deal with top management,” he says. “It gives n:e a lot of satisfaction to realize that I’m trained to know what this president or that vice-president is trying to learn. I help him solve his information handling problems.” Earl earned his B.A. in Political Science in 1967. Today, he’s a Marketing Repre sentative with IBM, involved in the planning, selling and installation of data processing systems. Ead’s experience isn’t unusual at IBM. There are many marketing and sales repre sentatives who could tell you similar experiences. And they have many kinds of academic backgrounds: business, engi neering, liberal arts, science. They not only market data processing equip ment as Earl does, but also IBM office products and information records systems. Many of the more technically inclined are data processing Systems Engineers. Visit your placement office Sign up at your place ment office for an inter view with IBM.
