What Type Of Person Thrives In The Higher Education Industry, According To A University Recruiter At A University Business School
Trisha believes that being "student centric" and "connected to the mission" of the university is key to thriving in the higher education industry, because it transforms the work into something that doesn't feel like work. From Trisha's perspective, when individuals are truly connected to the mission, they're not selling a program but rather "providing the information," as the value of higher education inherently speaks for itself.

Here are a few options for cleaning the transcript, depending on how much you want to change the original:
**Option 1 (Minimal Changes):**
> Q8: Who thrives in industry?
**Option 2 (Slightly more conversational punctuation):**
> Q8: Who thrives in industry?
**Explanation of Changes (for both options):**
* **Removed "Q8":** This seems like a question number and not part of the speaker's actual spoken words.
* **Added question mark:** The original was missing punctuation.
* **Kept it short:** The original phrase was already very concise and clear.
If "Q8" was intended to be spoken by the person, please let me know and I can adjust.
I think it's important to be student-centric and connected to the mission of the university or school you're working with. This connection to the mission makes the work feel less like work.
As mentioned before, I don't feel like I'm selling a program. I'm just providing information and speaking about it, because higher education in general benefits society and sells itself.
People who thrive in this industry need to be mindful that being connected to the mission will make the job much easier.
