????職務：2級雇員

????任職公司：安永會計事務所

????尼基?德蒙特很早就接觸了就業市場。2006年，17歲的德蒙特便開始就讀佐治亞大學（UGA）。大一過后，她便開始四處尋找進入會計行業的途徑，她說自己對會計領域非常感興趣。

????她在學校一個名為INROADS的項目中，通過學院顧問進行求職。該項目旨在幫助缺少資源的年輕人進入美國的一流公司，進而進入工商業。德蒙特稱，2007年，她得到INROADS招聘人員的消息。“他們跟我說：‘安永會計事務所（Ernst & Young）的人來了，他們想跟你談談。’他們說：‘你看上去心中充滿了渴望——雖然你還年輕。’”

????后來，德蒙特參加了安永會計事務所的新興領袖項目，并獲得了公司兩年的實習機會。等到她畢業時，德蒙特在安永已經積累了幾年經驗，并于2011年成為公司的正式員工。

????她說：“我感覺自己這一年非常出色。我接觸過事務所幾個最大的客戶——其中一家公司進行的是公開募股，這種經歷簡直太棒了。”現在她還是事務所亞特蘭大分所的一名初級員工，在金融服務部門工作。

????德蒙特說，未來“我希望能為銀行客戶服務。在這里的日子真是太有意思了。”

????Title: Staff 2 Employee

????Company: Ernst & Young

????Nikki Dement got a jump on the job market early. She started college at UGA in 2006, when she was 17. Immediately after her freshman year, she started looking for ways to get her foot in the door in accounting, a field she says had always piqued her interest.

????She applied to jobs through her college counselor at a UGA program called INROADS, which helps underserved youth get started in business and industry at some of the top companies in the country. In May 2007, Dement says, she heard from the INROADS recruiter. "They told me, 'We have Ernst & Young, and they want to talk to you.' They said, 'you seem very eager -- you're young, but you're very eager.'"

????Dement went into Ernst & Young's emerging leader's program, and was hired on for a two-year internship at the company. By the time she graduated, Dement already had years of experience with the company, which she joined officially as an employee in October 2011.

????"I have a strong year under my belt," she says. "I've done a lot of work with the largest accounts -- one being a public offering, which was awesome." Now she's an entry-level employee in the firm's Atlanta office, working in financial services.

????In the future, Dement says, "I really want to serve banking clients. This is such an interesting time."
