I first met Bevin at an Oakland University Career fair. From the start, my co-worker and I felt that Bevin had a lot of potential. I contacted Bevin to have him come in for an interview for an IT Internship in the Support Services Department. Bevin started working at Champion in March of 2014. Bevin has a great attitude, is a quick learner, volunteers for IT Projects and is great on the phone with customers. Even in a difficult job like IT Support he is has kept his wonderful attitude. I feel he would be a great addition to any company.
