Camp Counselor/Child Watch Employee

May 2018 • Northampton, MA

What I liked

I love being able to be around kids. I also loved the staff members as well.

What I wish was different

I wish I had more of a consistant schedule however, I can not complain since I am a seasonal worker and I typically fill in when needed.

Advice

Make sure you come to work with positive energy because you never know how you much you can impact a child.

Membership Services Representative

June 2018 • Northampton, MA

What I liked

I really wanted a job in the health & fitness environment, so the Y was the perfect place. It is such a positive environment and getting to know the members on a daily basis is something I'll carry with me to future jobs.

What I wish was different

Nothing too different

Advice

I really wanted to get to know everyone I interacted with at the Y because there are so many different people there. I now know plenty of members and employees in different departments than mine. So one piece of advice: don't stay in your own bubble, use the people around you to your advantage, but also because meaningful friendships come of them.
