UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA, AIKEN STUDENTS WILL BE AMAZING EMPLOYEES!

COLUMBIA, SC - 3/10/2016 (PRESS RELEASE JET) -- The University of South Carolina, Aiken has invited Atlanta Career Counselor & Life Coach, Lee Ann Bellon to speak with students as part of Director of Career Services, Corey Feraldi’s, series of programs to make USCA’s students an amazing part of the work force. The event will take place on March 16, 2016.

Graduating seniors lose job opportunities when they do not have the soft skills that make them attractive candidates. Those who do find employment may be fired if they do not understand how to function in a company. Lee Ann is the professional to guide them through the process of learning these skills. 

Lee Ann’s career was the result of serendipity. After reading an article titled, Dialing for Dollars, in the American Lawyer magazine, Lee Ann created the first legal recruiting and consulting firm in Atlanta, Georgia and most of the southeast. What was to become The Bellon Firm, LLC was opened in 1984. She had no legal or business experience. Everyone said the business would fail. Within six months the phone started to ring. Lawyers were placed throughout the country and the world. During her years as a recruiter, consultant and life-style coach Lee Ann advised many graduates on how to win and keep their first jobs.

In the early1980s successful businesses were rarely owned by a women. Lee Ann never considered that would be an issue. Her reputation is impeccable. Being nominated as Woman of the Year in Atlanta, GA, and recognized as an Agent of Change in the practice of law were two of the highlights of her career.   

 Lee Ann has travelled on business and pleasure to twenty-three countries and most of the United States. She can work with anyone, anywhere.
