Favorite Student Employment Memory:

It’s difficult to choose one favorite memory from my four years, but one of my favorite things is when students I’ve worked with tell me they got a job or internship because of the feedback I gave them. Giving presentations on various career topics to classes or student groups has also been a rewarding experience. I’ve also loved working with my supervisors and fellow student coworkers.

Please share what your job has given you:

Working in Career Services, I’ve absorbed a great deal of knowledge from my job training, office advisors, other peer workers, and networking events. This has helped not only at work but also in my personal life. Off the clock, I’ve been able to help friends with their resumes, cover letters, and interview prep. All these skills also helped me to land an internship as a recruiter with Amazon, where I will be returning full-time after graduation. Working in career services helped me land that job, but I have also been able to apply knowledge from that internship to help others in my peer advisor role. I’ve also had the chance to further develop my leadership skills, as I created the Lead Peer Advisor position for our team, which will leave a lasting impact.
