CNA
April - August 2019 • St. George, UT
What I liked
I liked being on the hospital setting and being able to see what it is like. Also, it helped me realize that I did not want to be a nurse.
What I wish was different
I wish I worked on the floor more often. Sitting with one patient during a shift is exhausting and boring.
Advice
Make sure you bring stuff to do because sometimes you are not busy at all. However, don't plan on getting anything done because you are at work and sometimes it is busy depending on your patients.

Software Engineering Intern
June 2017 • Murray, UT
What I liked
I learned SO much. Intermountain isn't crazy high pressure but I really felt driven by my coworkers and especially my fellow interns to learn and to reach my best potential
What I wish was different
Some of the hardware we were given as interns wasn't the best, we didn't have cubicles and largely worked in more social working spaces.
Advice
Learn as much as you can! This is a real world job and they are investing in your future, take away as much from it as you can, it will pay off later I promise!
