Downingtown Area School District

Summer Help - Information Technology

May - August 2019 • Downingtown, PA

What I liked

It was nice to reconnect and see old teachers and educators that were integral in helping to shape what I'd like to do with regards to future careers.

What I wish was different

A lot of times it was whiplash trying to work daily in both a) a new location/school and b) with a new team of people every day. Having a routine schedule would have been nice as well, as many times we were not given the schedule until the night of.

Advice

For those looking to go into a IT/technician position, working over the summer was overall enjoyable. However, some of the upper management positions really do not make you feel like you matter. Be sure to be your own advocate and speak up to someone in HR if you feel like you are being singled out, as I oftentimes felt like I was.
