Duck Tape Maker Gives BW Senior HR Experience that "Sticks"

An experience that will "stick" with her
Stephanie Knezevic '15 returned to campus this fall with valuable human resources experience under her belt.

Knezevic completed an internship at ShurTech Brands, LLC.,  in Avon, Ohio this summer. Her assignments at the company ranged from researching how to improve training systems, to sitting in on meetings and interviews to observe how HR professionals conduct business. She also scheduled interviews for potential candidates and helped plan company events.

Being a human resource management major in BW's School of Business, Knezevic was more than happy to land the internship at the company, which includes the iconic Duck Tape as one of it's well-known brands.

"I earned first-hand experience in all the various aspects of [Human Resources]," she says. "I [was able] to see what all of the human resource fields were like, and I got a little bit of experience with each."
