Eagle's Nest Foundation

Head Counselor

May - August 2018 • Pisgah Forest, NC

What I liked

Work that had a postiive impact on a community I cared about. Working with friends. Working with Children. Developing my skills as a peer counselor, community-builder, and educator.

What I wish was different

I think camp jobs often feel "unprofessional" or like they "don't count" as real job experience. I had a lot of anxiety about doing this job (which I loved and think was very valuable) over internships or jobs in "applicable" fields.

Advice

Doing work that you find valuable and makes you happy is a good enough reason to take a job.
