My experience working as a student assistant was unique, empowering and full of knowledge.
Everyone in the UCS team is very friendly and willing to teach you new things.
This position made me step out of my comfort zone and made me work on skills I never thought I had.

Advice
One piece of advice I would like to share is to not be afraid to ask questions, get involve and to enjoy your time there.
There are so many opportunities in UCS and I am so thankful I got to be present to experience them.
