Ouachita Baptist University

Mentor

June - August 2019 • Tulsa, OK

What I liked

I appreciated being able to work from my home. It was a low-demand job that fit well with my busy schedule over the summer.

What I wish was different

Advice

Make sure you start calling your students early in the summer. Don’t wait until the end; you’ll run out of time.

Special Collections Student Assistant

June - August 2019 • Arkadelphia, AR

What I liked

I really liked that I was able to work on campus with friendly and familiar faces who I saw throughout my school year. As an international student, it also allowed me to have an on-campus job that would help me pay for my school fees. This really was a blessing to me.

What I wish was different

I wish I had been able to get an internship that related to my major, however I was restricted due to my visa and could not work and earn a salary in any position off campus. That would have given me great experience.

Advice

I would tell students to be ready to make good connections and to make use of the resources that the library has to offer.
