Accomplishments

Prior to working at Pinstripes this summer, I had no restaurant or serving experience. My greatest accomplishment from this experience was my ability to learn different workgroups and execution of various tasks throughout the venue. In addition, I was able to expand my network and develop relationships with professionals that will help my career search after graduation. I truly have grown from this experience and am thankful for all of the skills I have developed through this program.

What advice would you give?

Never be afraid to ask questions and to learn new things outside of your comfort zone.
