You see what it takes to run a program/department at various levels. There is a lot of networking opportunities that can be helpful when applying for county jobs. A lot of volunteer opportunities that allow you to better your resume.
What I wish was different
The application process can be long so keep that in mind if you have time deadlines.
Advice
Try to network as much as you can by attending meetings and events. Really put yourself out there by volunteering to help on projects/events/etc.
