Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth

Residential Assistant

June - August 2023 • Baltimore, MD

What I liked

I really like the community that the camp creates. Everyone on the staff is a team and we all worked tirelessly to make sure the camp came together great and that each student enjoyed every moment they spent with us.

What I wish was different

We had a few issues with organizing and retrieving items that we needed for certain event. In the future I hope we can work on communicating effectively to ensure everything we need is obtained and of good quality.

Advice

Having this position really requires that you grow while working here. So if you’re the type of person who doesn’t work well with others or take kindly to feedback, I wouldn’t recommend this position for you. You need to be willing to allow yourself to grow and step out of your comfort zones.
