Graduates with Clark Associates

After graduating from Elizabethtown College in May of 2014, I was faced with the daunting challenge of finding my first career-oriented job. Having majored in Applied Mathematics, I knew I wanted to work in a position where my analytical mind could excel. That being said, I wasn't sure which direction that would take me.

Since being hired, I have enjoyed every day of work at WebstaurantStore. Furthermore, I feel the goals and outlook of the company align perfectly with the motto of my Alma Matter: Educate for Service. WebstaurantStore and Clark Associates are always trying to be involved in the local community by giving back through facilitating service projects and making charitable donations. WebstaurantStore is a great place to work. All of its employees have positive attitudes which make it easy to roll out of bed in the morning and come to work!

After graduating from Elizabethtown College in May of 2012, I stumbled upon the Jobs for Jay's site listing a Customer Solutions position at WebstaurantStore. Upon being hired, I immediately found that WebstaurantStore embodies everything I was looking for in a work environment: great people, readily available resources, and countless opportunities for promotions and self-improvement. While Customer Solutions can be frustrating at times, the unending support and encouragement from my coworkers and team leaders truly inspires me to be at my best. I feel incredibly lucky to be employed at a company that fully invests in their employees' personal growth, success, and overall well-being.

WebstaurantStore strives to hire individuals that they feel will be a positive addition to the team and who also encompass the company culture. It's no doubt that I have made lasting friendships here because of the atmosphere they have created! It's a great feeling being able to come to work each day excited to see my coworkers, what challenges I'll be faced with, and what the chef's will be cooking up next!

I graduated from Elizabethtown College in 2011 with a degree in Business Administration with concentrations in Finance and Management. I worked for a few other companies but never really found a place that I was happy and excited to be working for. All that changed when I started working for Clark Food Service Equipment as a Project Developer in late 2016.

Clark Associates as a whole is a great company to work for because of the type of employees they look for. They don’t just look for smart, qualified employees; they are also looking for those people that embody an entrepreneurial spirt. It is a place where you can make mistakes, but you need to learn from those mistakes. This is one of the things that really drew me to this company.

I graduated from Elizabethtown College in 2010 and started working at WebstaurantStore in 2013 as a Customer Solutions Specialist. My career is something I truly enjoy because I am able to help our customers solve problems, find answers, and make educated purchasing decisions about our products. Best of all, my job is a fast-paced and rewarding position! After starting here, I quickly learned that there are many opportunities for growth, so I pursued becoming a Category Expert. Now I am the go-to for our department when it comes to my particular food service categories. It is a great feeling teaching people and knowing that I can help them with any inquiries they have.

WebstaurantStore is a place that I love coming to everyday; and as they say, if you love what you do, you will never work a day in your life. All of the team leaders are encouraging and want to bring out the best in their employees. I love that we have vendor and birthday lunches, product trainings, team building activities, and that I can bring my dog to work. I feel very fortunate to work with co-workers I call my friends and for a company that wants me to succeed!
