My junior year is winding down--debate is over for the season, finals are here, and I've started a new summer job with the Census Bureau. Next year is my last at WKU.
Preparing for my senior year is exhausting; I feel slightly overwhelmed with the flood of GREs, grad school applications, and grad classes I'll be taking in addition to my senior courses in undergraduate next semester. Use your summer jobs wisely to make the most on your grad school apps.
There are a few things I'm doing to (hopefully) cut down on my workload. Last summer, I knocked out an internship with Homeland Security. This summer, I'm getting real experience in my future field of political work. As a Census Bureau employee, I'll be receiving training in survey completion, statistics, productivity, and management. Summer is an excellent time to get ahead of the career game by gaining extra skills and experience. And if you're lucky, a paycheck as well.
In both summers, I used Career Services to help me find the perfect summer job. I'd advise students at any level in college to use their services as soon as possible. The sooner, the better!
