Adam Perieberg
I am originally from Johns Creek, Georgia. I am a psychology major and will be graduating May 2018. I am particularly interested in burnout and job saliency and their affect on performance, personnel selection, and organizational development. Currently I am applying to the ABM in I/O psychology here at Auburn, and I will apply to other Master level programs here in the south east. After I am done with school, I hope to be consulting for businesses and organizations and applying what I have learned through research lab, school, and experiences to increase productivity and employee satisfaction in the work place.
