Waspada Peranginangin

"I arrived in the US in 2002 and sent many resumes out online but got no results. I got desperate and took jobs making minimum wage. I didn’t have a network and my degree from a non-US university was unfamiliar to potential employers. I contacted Upwardly Global and they helped me with my resume and helped me learn how to network and interview better. And they connected me with a recruiter at JPMorgan Chase and I was hired as an Audit Officer. My team here is like a small United Nations, and my career is now back on track."
