Q&A

arborist trainee

May - July 2021 • Council Bluffs, IA

What I liked

All their staff were very skilled and went above and beyond to equip me with all the knowledge I needed to be successful. It was one of the best internship I've ever had so far.

What I wish was different

Nothing. I had a great experience from my first day to my last.

Advice

Trust your coworkers and be humble. Even if you know some things, allow yourself to learn from everyone. There is always something good about everyone you meet at a workplace. Keep a positive attitude and learn as much as you can, as long as you can.
