EMT-B

April - July 2019 • Cascade, CO

What I liked

I loved being an EMT and being able to treat patients. The fact that my base was the Summit House on top of Pikes Peak added to the adventure and uniqueness of the job.

What I wish was different

When not treating patients I was working as a cashier or stocking the gift shop, this wasn't a bad way to spend down time but I sometimes felt management prioritized the business over the patient.

Advice

When you're going up a mountain please stay hydrated and eat something and if you're coming in from out of state give yourself time to acclimate to the altitude before trying to drive up Pikes Peak.

Accounts Receivable Specialist

May 2017 • Lexington, KY

What I liked

Training for all positions is thorough and well covered. If at any time you’re unsure of what you’re doing there’s someone to help.

What I wish was different

The only bad experience I’ve had with this company is the behavior of another employee. After bringing this to my managers attention the problem was immediately resolved.

Advice

Going into this job you should expect to be rewarded for your efforts. Growth within the company is possible for everyone. The atmosphere is laid back and repetitive.

Concessions Supervisor at PNC Park

February - October 2019 • Pittsburgh, PA

What I liked

I enjoyed the fast paced environment, being on my feet for most of the time and having the ability to do more then just run a concessions stand. I had the opportunity to do the finances, integrate sales in my role, problem solve, and resolve customer issues. Overall, I couldn't ask for a better team of fellow supervisors and stand leaders.

What I wish was different

At times, we were understaffed which became an issue during heavily populated pirates games. I wish Aramark hired more employees not only as supervisors, stand leaders, cashiers, and cooks but also in other departments such as IT, and the Warehouse.

Advice

As a supervisor, communication is CRUCIAL to the success of your job. You will be faced with up to 10 tasks at a time. Take notes, stay off your phone, and listen to your boss, your co-workers, and those that work below you. If you can communicate effectively and efficiently, you will do well at this position.
