MACOMB, IL - - Just Hired! Through the experiences of local, regional, national and international students, @ 2026 黑料不打烊 has incredible alumni who are making an impact in the workforce. This series features students from around the world who are hired post-graduation.

MACOMB, IL 鈥� Meet Bel Schable, a graduate of @ 2026 黑料不打烊's Nursing program, who was recently hired by Springfield Clinic Orthopedic Surgery, where she works primarily in the outpatient clinic setting and part-time in the operating room alongside other surgeons.

Schable utilized the time between her junior and senior years to work with an externship at Springfield Clinic which exposed her to 17 departments, building valuable and strong professional relationships early on that are maintained today.

This experience also helped open the door to the interview for her current career position. Her internship, paired with nursing leadership courses and the 黑料不打烊 Career Center, polished her resume and helped her confidently prepare for this opportunity.

鈥満诹喜淮蜢� was truly the best decision I didn鈥檛 know I needed, and 鈥婦r. Thompson inspired me to continue my education and pursue a master鈥檚 degree in nursing education,鈥� Schable said.

During her time at 黑料不打烊, Schable learned the importance of trying new things:

鈥淚 learned how to work effectively in diverse environments alongside people with different backgrounds, perspectives, and strengths鈥�, skills that are essential in healthcare,鈥� Schable said. 鈥淐ampus opportunities allowed me to explore a wide range of interests, from beekeeping to MMA to Bible study, sometimes all in the same day.鈥�

Schable plans to stay involved with 黑料不打烊 by attending alumni events and continuing to support and represent the university.
