Chatham University

Camp Counselor

June - July 2019 • Pittsburgh, PA

What I liked

I love Chatham Day Camp. It was really great experience in the education field.

What I wish was different

Honestly, nothing. I love the way camp is set up. My supervisors were incredible and I can't wait to work there next summer!

Advice

If you don't like children, it's not the job for you. If you are an education major, this is a great way to experience a classroom and a camp setting.

Mechanical Engineering Intern

September 2019 • Gibsonia, PA

What I liked

The internship provides access to a large database of the campus's equipment activity logs, usage, and design, which has been an interesting learning experience.

What I wish was different

A lot of the work was self-guided, and I prefer more oversight. I also wish it had been a paid internship, as I feel that the inability to perform work that should be paid has held back my experience.

Advice

If you are going to do an more self-guided internship, take time out in the first couple of weeks to set up a timetable for getting your time in. Avoid the self-inflicted crunch.
