Systems Engineer

May - August 2023 • Grand Rapids, MI

What I liked

The people I worked there were amazing, very helpful and accepting of my little to no knowledge entering this field for the first time in a professional experience.

What I wish was different

I wish my mentor situation was handled a bit differently. I could have extracted more from my internship had I had a bit better guidance and mentorship.

Advice

BE HERE NOW! It is so incredibly easy to get distracted with things around you and not be mentally present for the things at hand, and that is something you should avoid!

Inventory control

November 2017 • Royal Oak, MI

What I liked

I enjoy being in the hospital environment, even if my job doesn't have as much patient contact that I may want. Also, I cant complain about the pay with added premiums. Not to mention they hired me for weekends and a rotating day during the week, which works great during the school sessions.

What I wish was different

There's not much to complain about, other than the occasional thing here or there.

Advice

Its hard to get into a hospital, or at least takes time to get interviewed or hired in. If its really a experience you want to pursue, then be patient and keep applying to anywhere. I applied to many different positions, just to get a foot in the door and gain some experience working in a hospital.

What I wish was different

The only thing I wish is that my internship would have been longer. I learned so much in only three months I didn't want it to end.

Advice

Always ask questions throughout your entire internship. You are there to learn and the best way to learn is to ask questions.

Certified Nurse Aide

May 2019 • Troy, MI

What I liked

I love working with other people, especially in an environment that is geared towards caring and connecting with patients. My experience at the hospital has been nothing but rewarding. I have learned numerous hands-on skills, expanded my knowledge within the health field, been able to practice one-on-one care with patients and also met life long mentors that have helped shaped me into a better care provider. If you are looking for a one of a kind experience before entering Medical School, PA School, Nursing School, etc., I highly recommend getting involved in this kind of field ahead of time. It is a great opportunity to network as well as grow and develop personally.

What I wish was different

I wish that I would have had access to more hours and maybe more shadowing opportunities!

Advice

Ask questions! The more questions I ask in this job, the better, I truly believe, I will perform in my career in Health Care. Asking questions not only shows that you care and are ready to learn, but it is a great conversation starter with your coworkers. Having friends in any kind of work environment is important, especially when in a fast moving hospital.

Registered Nurse

July 2019 • Dearborn, MI

What I liked

I loved how thorough the orientation was for my position. I transferred from a step down unit to a critical care unit within my same hospital system (Beaumont) and I felt very prepared leaving orientation. Even with previous nursing experience, being an ICU nurse can be challenging. Beaumont took a lot of that burden off of my shoulders.

What I wish was different

I wish I would have started this position earlier!

Advice

My one piece of advise would be for all new graduate nurses to start in med surg, progressive care, or another step down unit of the hospital if they have aspirations to be an ICU nurse. There is no way that I could have been successful this position without the foundation I received from 2 years in progressive care.
