I got to do wonderful work, really hands-on and very representative of what a real job in the field is like. 40 hours a week doing writing, coalition-building, and organizing!
What I wish was different
not much; it was pretty great
Advice
Push yourself to take the job that feels scary. You are capable of doing well.
