What I liked

What I wish was different

Advice

Before you get a summer job, or any part time job during school, try your best to make it something that will be applicable to what you want to do in the future. Even if it’s just answering phones or running errands at a company your interested in. I would only recommend this job to people who are interested in management after college.
