Hi, my name is Gene. I am currently a management trainee at Hajoca. I grew up in New Jersey, and I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in May of 2011. After graduation, I worked as a quality assurance specialist at a software company, but the job became repetitive and stagnant. I needed something more exciting and energetic. After interviewing with many companies and receiving a couple of different offers, I decided to accept the opportunity to become a manager for Hajoca. So far, I feel that this was a great decision, and I’m looking forward to continuing my career here.
