For many students, summer is a time to relax—but for Josh, it was a chance to start something meaningful. Referred to GMi by a friend who had worked previous summers, Josh joined us for the first time in 2025 and quickly discovered the benefits of seasonal employment.
Motivation Meets Opportunity
Josh’s main motivation was financial. He needed to earn money to cover rent and personal expenses as a college student. But what he gained went far beyond a paycheck. His time at GMi helped him build confidence, develop communication skills, and learn how to navigate a professional environment.
Skills That Stick
One of the most valuable lessons Josh learned was how to ask questions and communicate effectively with his team. He realized that seeking help and being open to learning are key to success in any workplace. These skills not only helped him perform better on the job but also prepared him for future academic and career challenges.
Advice for Future Summer Workers
Josh encourages other recent graduates to look for summer jobs in places with a strong culture and positive environment. He believes that being part of a team where people support and respect each other makes the experience much more fulfilling.
