Why I will say YES to a Cummins Full-Time Offer
First, I don’t have a full-time offer from Cummins, I still have about 4 weeks left on my internship. Today I was thinking, if I had an offer would I accept it? Then I came up with a different question, Even if I don’t have an offer, would I tell Cummins that I would accept any offer?
The answer that came to my mind was very powerful. The answer is YES. Would I work for free? NO. Would I work without any benefits? NO. So, clearly I wouldn’t work for Cummins under any circumstance, but here is why I’m not worried about saying yes before knowing the offer:
- Even knowing that I will say YES, Cummins will offer me a competitive compensation package, because that is the right thing to do.
- Any position that I am offered will be as good as any other starting point.
- I will not be pigeon holed into a set area of interest, I will be able to move and find the areas that challenge and interest me.
- Within Cummins I will be able to fulfill my desire of becoming an international executive.
- Cummins is interested in being my career partner, and I am interested in building value for Cummins in the short and long term.

In the search for character and commitment, we must rid ourselves of our inherited, even cherished biases and prejudices. Character, ability and intelligence are not concentrated in one sex over the other, nor in persons with certain accents or in certain races or in persons holding degrees from some universities over others. When we indulge ourselves in such irrational prejudices, we damage ourselves most of all and ultimately assure ourselves of failure in competition with those more open and less biased.” — J. Irwin Miller
I will have to agree, but I have always known that character, ability and intelligence are traits inherited from Our Father in Heaven.
