Royal United Mortgage LLC Hosts The Oaks Academy Career Day

The team at Royal United Mortgage LLC hosted a career day for The Oaks Academy Alumni Leadership Series. This event brought high school students together at the Royal United Mortgage LLC office in Indianapolis for a full day of professional development activities presented by employee leaders.

The students arrived at the office dressed for success! Julie Wright, Director of Human Resources at Royal United Mortgage LLC led the students through a full day of activities at the office. This event was a great learning opportunity for these young adults and provided insight to what professional life could be like after graduation.

President and CEO, Mike Keleher, presented on leadership and the importance of professionalism when guiding a team to run a successful business. Mike says “Don’t ever fear action.” These strong, inspiring words were taken to heart by the students who acively listened to his mentorship.

Several employees took time from their days to speak with The Oaks Academy Alumni including staff from the following departments: human resources, recruiting, sales, closing, marketing, finance, compliance, and operations. Recruiting did mock interviews to engage students and give a taste of what might be asked of them when applying for a position. Employee panels discussed what it takes to be successful in their role and what qualities someone seeking various career paths may possess. The students took that knowledge and applied it to their personal strengths through a
case study. They then took turns sharing aloud what resonated about the different departments and what career path they might pursue.

The staff found it exciting to see firsthand that students in our communities are seeking educational opportunities and are strongly considering their future careers. Maybe some of these bright students will become future interns or employees at Royal United Mortgage LLC! This event is just one of the many ways Royal United Mortgage LLC is pleased to support the youth in our communities through education.

Thank you to the students who joined us on this exciting day full of growth and development opportunities!
