Senior Josh Weitz knows that he knows a lot of people. He knows that he can make friends easily. He works for the coolest hangout on campus, he plays bass in a band that frequents campus concerts, and he served as president for the Jewish Culture Club. But Josh tried humility for a moment during the interview, “ I guess it’s cool,” he said. He just couldn’t resist the smirk at the end of his sentence.
Her Campus Kean: Tell us about your band, 216.
Josh Weitz: Well me and my roommates. We like to mess around. We take songs and just cover it, and we’ve played at a few school events. We do it for fun, and it really is fun.
HCK: Why 216?
JW: It’s our room number. Not so clever, but it was the best we could do.
HCK: What are your career goals?
JW: To secure a job in marketing that would allow me to use my interpersonal skills and be able to communicate with people.
HCK: Speaking of talking, you seem to know everyone on campus.
JW: Not everyone. Just the cool people.
HCK: So who is given the honor of talking to you?
JW: I’m just kidding. I’m a senior so I’ve been around for a while. I work on campus; I’m involved in clubs so I’ve met a lot of people through those. I say hi to everyone because I like to. There might be times when I’m walking down the hall and I speak to a female, and my girlfriend might get jealous. But I know a lot of people. It makes me feel good.
HCK: What internships have you had?
JW: Well, I’ve worked. I’ve worked with the New Jersey Nets and the Somerset Patriots, where I ran the scoreboard. But I’ve worked for everyone from a physical therapist’s office to a day camp.
HCK: What’s the main thing you’ve learned from work?
JW: Punctuality. The importance of punctuality.
HCK: What’s your sign?
JW: Umm… Scorpio? I was born in October. Is that right?
HCK: No.
JW: Oh. Well then I have no idea.
