How was it? What did you like best about your first week? What did you like least?

This week for me was definitely a lot of anticipation. I didn’t know what to expect at all going into this job, being that it is my first coop experience. I was super excited to get started though, because I loved the atmosphere here at SHM and I really enjoyed how nice and open the employees are with everyone. I really would have to say the best part of my week was doing the one on ones and learning more about everyone here at SHM. For me, this gave me a great chance to not only learn about them as a person but allowed me to learn more about the company and working here. It really helped me to getting situated into this job and feeling like I was important and not just another coop walking in the door. It definitely made the transition a whole lot easier for me and made things much more relaxing. One thing I would say I least like about this week was just at times where I had down time after meetings and was left with not much to do. I would have those times where I was just sitting at my desk. This however I expected because it is my first week and I did not expect to be thrown too much information that it would feel overwhelming. Overall though, this first week has been amazing! I have learned so much in such a short period of time here and I can’t wait to move forward and be involved in the many great projects SHM is working on!
