A Campus-to-Career Case History 4 IUll Tyer discusses features of a training program for operators with Miss Edith Sanders. i i “There’s always something different" “In my job, there's always something different coming along—a new problem, a new challenge. When 1 got out of col lege 1 wanted to make sure 1 didn't settle down to a job of boredom. There’s never been a chance of that at Bell.” That’s Charles W. (Bill) Tver talking. Bill graduated from Texas Christian Uni versity in 1953 with a B.S. in Commerce. He went right to work with Southwestern Bell in Fort Worth. How did he make his choice? Here's what he says: “From what I'd seen it was an interesting business w ith tremendous room for expansion. And a big feature with me was the opportunity to choose my location. I wanted to work in the Fort Worth area. “I came in under the Staff Assistant Program for college graduates. I spent several weeks in each of the company’s five departments. Then I went back for six months of intensive training in our Traffic Department. “After training. I was promoted. One of my first jobs v^as setting up and super vising- a customer service improvement program. “In January, 1956, I was again pro moted. My present job is assistant to the District Traffic Superintendent. My re sponsibilities include, instruction of PBX operators, employee and public relations, and scheduling operators to handle calls to and from 185.000 telephones. “No—there’s no chance for boredom!” Bill Tver is typical of the many young men who are finding their careers in the Bell System.
