The story of Alex Ingram &#8217;10 is a perfect example. Alex is an International Recruiting Analyst for Abercrombie &amp; Fitch. Ingram was on campus Feb. 8 to recruit students interested in a career. The business side offer far more than the stereotype.<\/p>\n<p>Ingram started to work in an Indianapolis Abercrombie retail store while at Wabash. The company had a casting call for models and he applied. He worked doing runway shows and other assignments through his time at Wabash.<\/p>\n<p>Six months ago he left law school in Chicago to move to the company&#8217;s headquarters in Columbus, Oh. He does analysis of the company&#8217;s recruiting practices and goes out on the road as a recruiter as well.<\/p>\n<p>Ingram never had an upper level statistics class at Wabash and never imagined doing the kind of analysis that&#8217;s now a part of his daily routine. &#8220;But Wabash taught me how to tackle problems and how to see the bigger picture,&#8221; he said. &#8220;A liberal arts education is perfect for a position like mine.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The very successful careers of Wabash men are well documented.
