What I liked

You received minimum wage there but the benefits included with the job were free movies and a free stubs account which would accumulate rewards.

What I wish was different

I wish that the scheduling had been a little more uniformed.

Advice

It's a fun job where you get to work so many different tasks each shift and it broadens your range of abilities.

What I liked

All of my fellow employees and managers were easy to work with and helpful. I also experienced plenty of flexibility with scheduling.

What I wish was different

Work sometimes wouldn’t be over till midnight or later. I would’ve preferred working a few more daytime shifts.

Advice

Although the job was fine, I feel it didn’t give me much career experience. In the future I’ll be pursuing an internship in a filled I’m interested in.

What I liked

The staff were super friendly made some great connections and I loved getting free movie tickets. I am a big movie fan so being able to watch all the films in theaters was like a dream come true their benefits are great.

What I wish was different

Anything that I didn't care for were things that couldn't be helped or changed such as customers attitudes and maybe the cleaning at the end of the night. There were no janitors that came in and cleaned it was just the staff.

Advice

I would say even if you get rude customers who are upset for things out of your control you must remain calm and friendly no matter what. The nicer you are the harder it is for them to continue to be rude or upset it just makes them look bad. And being friendly and smiling when dealing with customers goes a long way.

Corporate Financial Analyst

May - August 2019 • Leawood, KS

What I liked

Everyone was super nice and very willing to assist me when I had questions. I feel like I was given import work (some of it went to the CEO/CFO) that I gained a learning experience from.

What I wish was different

Because I had just switched majors, I didn’t feel I was very prepared for the position once I started completing work.

Advice

Be confident but also ask questions! At the end of internship I got an evaluation and they thought I did great, but that I needed more confidence in my work.

What I liked

It was a very nice first job and taught me a lot about the working life.

What I wish was different

I wish I was paid more but it was good enough for a small summer job.

Advice

Having a summer job instead of sitting around and doing nothing is a great use of your time and it’s nice having money to go out.

June - August 2019 • Mesquite, TX

What I liked

Easy to speak to staff and managers

What I wish was different

The culture, individual people were great but when dealing with issues with guests, its intimidating to ask for help at times.

Advice

The stuff you have to deal with is not worth the pay and tips, being a server at one of the biggest theaters in the nation is extremely harder than being a server at a sit-down restaurant.

What I wish was different

I wish I could have continued working at such a fine establishment throughout the year. However, this job was too far from my university.

Assistant manager

April 2018 • Johnson City, TN

What I liked

I liked how easy it was to find all the positions available.

What I wish was different

It would’ve been easier to have more contact information.

Advice

Always give it a shot, even if you think you don’t have one. I never thought I would’ve able to get this leadership position because it required leadership experience. I was able to use my organization positions as that experience which landed me the job.

What I liked

I loved the people I was working with. While sometimes the work environment got rough, the people around me, whether I knew them or not, made it so we got through it together. The entire experience was truly an uplifting time of my life, I understood my value in a workplace, and got a clearer picture of what I wanted to do in the future.

What I wish was different

I wish I was able to work more between my summer class and other obligations to build a bigger network, create better relations, and have more exposure for a great experience.
