How did you get your job?

I checked CORE and saw the posting the day after it was posted by the employer. I sent in my resume that night and got a call the next day to go in for an interview. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten a job offer so quickly. Shout out to CORE.

What do you like the most about your job?

I’m getting a lot of valuable experience. My boss lets me take control of my projects, which has been the most beneficial part of this position. The real-world experience is unmatched.

How did your job change in a virtual workplace? How did you interact with your co-workers?

I’ve been working in person since day one. It’s nice to go to the office to work when almost every other experience over the last year has been online.
