I love working with kids, so this was a great job for me. It was nice having consistent hours (unlike getting a seasonal job at a retail store). There are also plenty of opportunities available if I want to work as a camp counselor again (after the camp's summer session, they send you follow up emails about opportunities for future camp sessions). A perk was that all the staff received free access to the PJCC facilities (gym, pool, etc.)
What I wish was different
Overall, the job was great so I would not ask for anything different.
Advice
Although this job is fun, you also have to be at 110% all the time for the kids. It's really tiring, so be prepared to be exhausted. Just make sure to get rest after work and get enough sleep.

What I wish was different
Something I wish had been different was that I wish I could have interacted more with members as our typical interactions were pretty brief.
Advice
One piece of advice I would like to share about this experience is that it helped me realize the importance of customer service and providing an entire experience to members.
