Jazmin: I’ve learned so many things about myself and just knowing as a professional, one day, that just learned like conflict management or learning about turnover and retention and just how important it is to keep people engaged and things that I probably would not have learned in the classroom that I’ve been able to learn in my internship.

Amila: know now how a non-profit works; how different it is then working in a hospital or physician practice. And I think that deeper knowledge will set me apart from other candidates that may not have worked in a non-profit before.

[Video: Students talk while sitting at a desk together, followed by Jazmin speaking in the office again.]

Jazmin: When I was looking at my resume in class, I’m like, oh my goodness, I’ve done all this stuff. Whether it’s talking to students, whether it’s program planning, whether it has just been coordinating different events and scheduling, all these things that will be beneficial. Whether I go the health management route or if I go the public health route, all these things that I will be able to use and that will be profitable for any organization that I may work with.
