I liked learning about a new career path, while I also gained experience for the field I am studying.
What I wish was different
I worked the midnight shift, which was hard to adjust to but there were other shifts I would have preferred to work.
Advice
Be professional, and treat everyone with respect. Don’t be scared of the place that you are applying or the people you will be working with.

What I liked
I really liked the culture that the Hampden County Sherrifs Department created within their Women's Corectional Center. The professionals that you get to work with will have a lasting impression. I learned so much about local resources through my work and really grew as a leader in the community.
What I wish was different
I wish it was paid but it was worth the experience I gained through my time in the facility.
Advice
You should push yourself out of your comfort zone and really fully engage I'm your experience so dont be afraid to ask to explore every possibility while you are doing your experience.
