SUMMER 2022 ALUMNI: AMADOU DIALLO

How would you describe your EP to someone who has never heard of it before?

My Ep would be classified as an internship through the program of SYEP, where different worksites are given through the application of your choice, but the job site isn’t guaranteed.

What is a typical day like during your EP?

A typical day in my EP is working with my case manager to file papers, doing some language translation, putting up some posters, and commuting to different locations, as well as walking with the elderly.

What was the biggest challenge of your EP?

Biggest challenge of my EP is the commute since it’s a 1hour commute and I have to get up at 10.

What was the biggest reward of your EP?

The biggest reward of my EP is the ability to discuss a variety of characters at my worksite and hearing their stories and learning about people who have decades of experiences greater than mine.

What do you wish you had known before you went on your EP?

Not too much, but know that depending on your quality of work you can be offered a job in the future.

What advice do you have for future SEO scholars who are considering your EP?

If you choose to work here, I advise having a big interest in finance or pre- med as you can put this worksite in your resume.
