>> My favorite part of my job is really just kind of knowing at the end of the day
that we're making a difference, and so I think that while that can sound kind of vague
or cliché, I think that every day when I go in, I just have a variety of tasks that really speak
to that mission, and so my favorite part of my job is just the challenge of it.
We are assigned to four are five projects at a time, and so just working
on the different projects, doing the research, working with different people,
getting to go on site visits out in the community.
I really just like the analytical and intellectual aspect of my job,
as well as the people that I work with.
I think the hardest part of the job is kind of the same as the strengths of the job.
So although it's really enjoyable and interesting.
You get to work on a lot of different projects, it can be challenging to prioritize
or really manage your time to know which project to work on
and how to just efficiently balance a day, and a lot of what we do is relatively self-directed,
but at the end of the day, there are deadlines and there are contracts, and so,
just figuring out for yourself how are you going to develop your schedule?
How are you going to get through the day is a challenge, but a good one.
