A Campus-to-Career Case History

IUll Tyer discusses features of a training program for operators with Miss Edith Sanders.

“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. Other inter
esting careers exist in the Bell Telephone Companies,
Bell Telephone Laboratories, Western Electric ami
Sandia Corporation. Your placement officer has more
information about these companies.
