As a participant in Mercer University's work-study program, the experiences I took home from working in an office and professional environment were that I was effective at communication, teamwork, and paying careful attention to detail to ensure that the workplace ran smoothly and with little complications by being able to adapt to any situation that may arise.
Lab Student
My time working in various lab settings during my academic time at Mercer University taught me valuable critical thinking and problem solving skills, as I would have to maneuver in the lab environment to solve unforeseen issues or erroneous steps in procedures to achieve the most favorable outcomes in any scenario.
