Orientation Leader

March 2019 - September 2019 • Santa Clara, CA

“I absolutely love this job! Being an orientation leader was an unforgettable and wonderful experience that I would 110% do again! I loved meeting new students and their families and sharing my SCU experience with them! I loved representing Santa Clara University in which I actively promoted and supported the school's mission and values. I loved being a guide, mentor, and role model for new students! What I love most about this job is that it never ends (figuratively). Even after the orientation is over, I still talk to students and help them in any way I can, whether that's by offering advice or simply listening about their quarter so far. ”
