Guest Advocate
May - August 2019 • Coralville, IA
What I liked
I enjoyed the people I got to meet from the experience and the opportunity to learn what it meant to work for a larger company
What I wish was different
Communication was very hard because there were so many advisors. Also, at the time of my employment, the computer system for their workers were down. It was very hard to communicate when I needed time off or the dates I could work.
Advice
If you need a summer job and a little more bang for your buck, it is worth it. You just have to be ready to be busy. Also, Iowa City traffic was a struggle for me.
