I liked interacting with the community and with little kids because I will one day become a teacher so the experience with helping kids grow their mindset and athletic ability was a good experience for me.
What I wish was different
I wish I had my own facility so that way it was more accessible rather than specific set times.
Advice
Do not be afraid to interact with kids as early as possible in the process. These kids value what you have to say and are learning by every move you make. Also be organized with your scheduling to make it easier in the end for time management and last minute additions or cancellations.

Accountant
January - June 2019 • New York City, NY
What I liked
I loved my job. It required me to put all my mathematical skills to work.
What I wish was different
I wish my boss had been better. She had no sense of boundaries and all of my overtime work was unpaid but mandatory, which there was a lot of. She would always ask me to work on my days off and overtime on my work days but I wasn't allowed to ask for payment for that extra time and if I refused to give unpaid labor they would threaten to lay me off.
Advice
Do not let your bosses take advantage of you. Set your hours and pay ahead of time and make sure there is a clear understanding about where you stand on working overtime and make sure that under any circumstances you do not agree to any amount of unpaid labor.
