Why do our seasonal workers love their job?
I joined the City because I enjoy working with children. The supervisor made me feel welcome, as did my new co-workers, which appealed to me. I've stayed because the work environment is positive and supportive. It's given me the opportunity and flexibility to grow in my knowledge of childcare, and I really enjoy my work.
Three qualities that I think best define the City as an employer are Empathetic, Opportunity for Growth and Advancement and Safety-Driven. The best way I can describe the culture is like being part of a large sports team. Within a team, everyone has a role that he or she must fulfill to ensure the objectives of the team, or in this case, the organization, are met successfully. My experience as a part of this team has been an enjoyable one, and I look forward to going to work each day.
The City is a large public-sector organization, and I have the opportunity to learn and provide excellent public service to the public. Growth, advancement potential and leadership are important to me, and the City offers all of them.
