For freshmen, sophomores, and juniors
Strong work habits begin with volunteer service or summer job responsibilities. Remember these basic rules:
- Be punctual.
- Dress neatly and appropriately.
- Place your name tag and any other job-related materials in a location where you can easily find them before leaving the house.
- Keep a list of skills that you learned or were required for your job. (This is very important)
- When you receive your first paycheck, be sure to verify that all information on the check is correct.
- Record the name, title, phone number, and address of your employer or volunteer supervisor. You'll need it later for job and school references.
