Employment Blogger
Some of the qualities I think is important to have when a person is entering an internship are maturity, professionalism, good time management, and most importantly dedication. Earning the internship through yearup is just the first step toward your career, if you want to keep your position after your internship, you must show your supervisor and colleagues every single one of the qualities listed, ten fold. I plan to show my internship readiness for the third module by continuing to strive for excellence and improving all my growth areas to make them my greatest strengths. I take this program very seriously because if I work hard I know where it can get me

Best Job I've Had
Prompt:
Compose a blog post 250 to 300 words long addressing either of the following questions. Be specific and respond to each bullet point in your post.
What is the best and the worst job (paid or volunteer) that you have ever had?
I've had many jobs in my short lifetime. I've done office work, manual labor, retail, painting, and many other types of jobs. My favorite job I've ever had would have to be for the Oakland Unified School District as a custodian and an after school coordinator. My custodian position was my favorite job because I had a whole lot of freedom. I had a list of set duties to perform everyday, and if completed them before the day was finished I could sit in my office and do whatever i wanted. I enjoyed working with the kids, organizing the basketball practices, recess periods, and helping out in the lunchroom. It was the kind of job that I could just wonder around and do whatever had to be done, or not. The pay wasn't that great, but I got to take long lunch breaks, and whatever else I wanted as long as I continued to work hard and show initiative.
The worst job I've ever had in my life was working at Aurthur Young's Debris Removal. I worked for this company in two separate times, with two separate job titles. When I worked in the office as the secretary it wasn't that bad at all, but when I worked in the field when I got really desperate for work I hated it. I had to do a bunch of duties that was almost slave work, and I would never do anything like that again. I had to work on the side of the freeway climbing up hills cleaning up leaves, risking my life for a little pocket change. I eventually quit and pursued other employment. I've had many subprime jobs, this was not one of them.
