My Career Development Of An Office Environment

The main task of my internship was to gain more experience and knowledge of our respective field. Overall, the experience proved to be both enjoyable and rewarding. During this internship I used the skills that I learned from my Medical Assistant class and used them in the real world scenarios at the hospital. Also while I there I was exposed to new experiences. Such as performing Urine test on Drug and alcohol patients. For this procedure I had to stand in the restroom with the patient's and watch them urinate into a cup. I had to stand in the restroom with the patients because in the past they try and cheat the system. For example

Specifically, I was able to apply many of the concepts and skills that were discussed within the MIDCM coursework in a professional setting, such as language aid, guided research, community development, proposal/grant support, youth engagement activities and education initiatives. My two primary projects throughout the summer internship were the Vulnerable Populations Project and the CYFAR Grant Program. The Vulnerable Populations Project focuses on the nine groups of youth listed above. I was tasked with researching information on each group, finding federal laws related to each specific group, and condensing the information to be posted online to the public.

Throughout my lifetime thus far, I have had 5 different careers. My first job was when I was 16 years old, where I worked as a cashier and stocker at the 99 Cents Only store. I had been promoted from a stocker to cashier within a couple months and ended up leaving the company a year later. When I was 17, my mother bought her first house after the divorce in the city of Surprise, Arizona. Working at the 99 Cents Only store would be to far for me to travel, so I found another job at Quiznos Subs. I ended up working as a cashier, but quickly moved up to a shift leader and assistant to the store owner. I was in charge of ordering supplies and counting down the register at night, while making deposits at the bank. I ended up working for Quiznos Subs until 2005, when I

For my internship, I served under the Allegheny County Health Department in Pittsburgh, PA. I served as the National Health Corps Member for the Women, Infants, and Children Program as their Care Coordinator for all nine offices. Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) is a supplemental nutrition agency that targets pregnant and postpartum women and young children ages 5 and under who are at risk of malnutrition. My supervisor Annie Nagy along with my mentors in the office made sure I was able to receive all of the materials and resources I would need to have a complete and successful internship.

At age 18 I was a customer service representative at Family Dollar and then was later promoted to assistant manager. I was in charge of a team of about 11 employees and majority of them were older than me. I was proud of that accomplishment, but wanted more for myself. I wanted to start a career.

My first job Westinghouse Electric as an administrative assistant right out of business school However, I worked full time and was promoted a number of times reaching Engineering Assistant reading blue prints and identifying parts of transformers…..

The internship was a channel to direct my passion for helping others; my supervisor assigned me numerous projects that involved communicating with community leaders. One project was a collaboration with the U.S. Probation Office to reduce recidivism, and it allowed me first hand encounter on how to create policies and procedures to promote community and individual growth. This insight has inspired me to attend law schools to influence legal policies. After the internship, I continued my involvement in the community outreach through the Nutmeg Big Brothers Big Sisters and The Females' Center of Excellence & Leadership, Inc. by mentoring at-risk youths and providing learning opportunities to the youths.

For my event management class I learned firsthand what it is like to plan and host events. Each student in the class was able to implement what we learned from the class by hosting a fundraising event for Relay for Life and a campus event for our former president Tom Galligan. called the Galligan games. For my Advertising and Social Media class my group and I were able to work with the admissions department to help reach more perspective students by creating email blast and a fun video series to show perspective students what it is like to be a college student.

This internship trained me in the use of various software programs. My ability to understand and troubleshoot in various programs would allow me to use quantitative and qualitative standard procedures. In any organization where I had the chance to learn, I demonstrated my aptitudes and abilities, such as focusing on details, analyzing procedures, and adhering to corporate

Ever since I was fourteen my dad put me to work. My first job was working at the local Burger King near my house that my family ran. Now working at Burger King wasn’t a joke like most people would have thought. Everyone has to work together as a team to achieve the speed of service goal. I’ve had to learn how to quick and act quickly as well as deal with angry customers and managers.

What was missing or disappointing, if anything, about this internship? What was especially rewarding and educational?

Getting my first job was really quite an experience. I learned and grew up a whole lot from just that alone. I remember all the steps I took to get there from the interviewing process to even starting with something as simple as a resume. It felt so great just obtaining the job through hard work and dedication. It was the beginning of my senior year where nearly everyone had a job and I was pretty much discouraged. I felt like I would never get a job. My schedule was pretty flexible so I couldn’t understand why I wasn’t getting hired by anyone. I sat for a while and came to conclusion I had to have a different attitude to get a better outcome. With persistence everything slowly fell into place. I got so much encouragement from the people around

Each job took me out of my comfort zone by meeting new people whom had different ethics, work experience, and financial backgrounds than my own.

The following summer I put in an application at the Vine Street Cafe which is a high-end restaurant in the Hamptons. That same summer I worked in the morning shift as a busboy for the Chequit Inn. From this experience I learned that hard work and dedication are key factors to being successful. Those principles have helped me excel at each job I've
