In mortgages, good data and bad data are the difference of closing a mortgage or not closing a mortgage. It is very important to have a system where all aspects of the clients ‘mortgage portfolio’ are synched together and easily accessible. If a social security number is wrong, bad data, we could be running a mortgage for a completely different…[Read more]

Other than information systems, decision trees can be used in many aspects of life. Decision trees can be used in the post office, like many of our examples, to calculate the shipping charges for a package. Decision trees can be used to map out different plans an individual may have for their day. In my job now, credit scores can lead to a number…[Read more]

In my current career as a mortgage loan officer assistant swimlanes and ERDs would be great tools to use. Swimlane diagrams could be used to show the process of collecting a clients information to the point when they are officially approved for a mortgage.

In my opinion, the fact I found most interesting is that for the first time we have 4 generations working side by side; along with the fact by our third year of study the curriculum we learned in our first year of study will be outdated. So, it is very interesting to see the different generations coexist in the work place and constantly learn…[Read more]

We unfortunately do not have an ERD system but would absolutely benefit from one in the sense of training procedures, and sales operations. We could use one to overview the steps of training and what to do in certain situations, which could be the…[Read more]

Currently I work for a Casino as a server/bartender. I find that swimlanes are much easier to understand, but I do think that ERDs would be more useful. They ERDs could be split up into sections for the types of alcohol we use, the sections we have, the different bars and restaurants within the establishment, and etc. However, swimlanes could be…[Read more]

After watching this video I think it is so interesting how many Google searches are done monthly and how we almost replace the words “look up” or “research” with just the search engine name of Google. I think this is so interesting because students around our age at Stanford University started Google as a research project. As current or future…[Read more]

I absolutely agree! On the other hand I think it is so interesting to think this has never happened before. Could this be because of the need to work longer to fund retirement and pay into Social Security benefits? I also think of the company I work for and no one in my direct office is over the age of 35, with the exception of two bosses around…[Read more]
