Your Opinion, please!
Sep. 24th, 2004 01:54 pmI'd like your opinion.
I've been signed up for Work Study for school. I have two fairly challenging classes (out of three) that will have a lot of memorization and homework.
The work study job I applied for turns out to be very intense. She needs someone to take a neglected scholarship program and promote it. It's for AmeriCorps.
There are no specific job duties, and the goals are vague. They've never had a work study job for this department of the school, but they're considered the "flagship" volunteer program in the area. My "boss" works part-time and wouldn't be there most of the time I'm there. So it's a "make it up as you go" kind of job.
In my career these have always proven to be bad news. People want the world, but don't know exactly what they want. It's challenging, and there's a scholarship opportunity that would go with it.
But I dunno.
What do you think? Those of you who've done work study especially.
