Program Assistant

July - August 2018 • Rochester, NY

What I liked

I loved interacting with the scholars and the other program assistants. I got to appreciate first hand a lot of the organising that goes into the MasterCard foundation scholars program

What I wish was different

I wish I had been more engaged earlier because it took me a while to start feeling it and I feel like I missed a lot of great opportunities to have fun

Advice

Always reach out to people. Even if they look like they don't need help you should check on them and make sure that they are okay. Showing genuine concern takes nothing from you
