Hey All,
I have about a month before I graduate high school, but I don’t have any real work experience (last summer I was hired by a lab at a local university, but it was part-time for just around a month).
I was hoping to work as a nursing assistant this summer, but I’m having trouble deciding if it is worth the effort since my certification doesn’t come in until mid-May and I will have to stop working by mid-July.
If I find a job somewhere else, I can start working as soon as possible.
Although money is nice-to-have, I am working for the experience, not the money.
I am planning to major in biochem and go to medical school.
My question for CC: Is it worth the hassle to get a job as a nursing assistant this summer? If not, would it look better on future job/college applications to 1) do more research, 2) get a job at a local pharmacy, or 3) get a job at a coffee shop?
Thanks for the help
J
