Jobs in the Metals Industry Never Looked So Cool with Jennifer Betts Magnar Metals

Date

Jennifer Betts of Mangar Metals shares her passion for the metals industry with our crew. What started as a discussion learning all about he ins and outs of the scrap metal business turned into a discussion on life lessons, career and family choices and inspiration to get the crew to live their dreams! Jennifer found out about the business at a career fair in college thinking that the interview with her eventual employer DJJ would serve as a great practice interview and it led to the beginning of a successful career! We unfortunately had some technical difficulties, we will have to do another round in person with Jennifer in the dumpster!
