Fun environment that encourages personal and professional growth
Teaching Assistant (Former Employee), Kingston Ontario – July 26, 2012
Pros: flexible hours
Cons: sometimes very long hours.
My typical day involved meeting with students, lesson planning, marking and leading tutorials. Queen's is a great environment to be inspired by great minds while shaping future ones. Flexible hours and a great balance of team and individual work. Management is always available to guide you and provide assistance when needed but is not overbearing. The – more... hardest part of the job was marking - only because it is very tedious. The most enjoyable part of the job is seeing students develop into academics. – less

Fun work place
Fundraising Caller (Former Employee), Kingston, ON – June 19, 2012
Pros: freedom to talk to people sitting around you
Cons: working till late
Working at Queen's Telefundraising Service was a fun experience. I would get to work in the evening an stay till night. The environment was very relaxed. We took our sets at our desks (there was always a new rotation so you got seated next to a different person every time which helped you get to know others) and after some updates from our employer – more... we started calling alumni. The hardest part was sometimes convincing alum to donate who had a bad experience at the university. – less
