Why Do I Love My Job at Your Employment Solutions?
Have you ever worked for a company that you dreaded so much that even the thought of stepping on a Lego in the middle of night would bring more joy than having to go back to work the next day?
I used to have this same feeling before I started working for Your Employment Solutions and here are a couple of reasons why.
Helping Others
I love helping others; I guess you could say it’s in my blood. I get to have face-to-face interaction everyday with people that truly are in need. You never realize how much simple interaction can mean to someone until you experience it yourself.
Helping others makes me feel like I have a reason to be here. I get a sort of fulfillment out of making other people feel better or helping them out in times of need. Helping others is like helping yourself; it gives you this pride within yourself to know that one person can make a difference, no matter how small it may be. It brings me pure joy to know that something as small as smiling at someone or saying hello can change their entire day.
The Company
The love I have for this company is beyond explanation. Though I have been here for only a short time, I’ve grown to love my coworkers like family. It’s my home away from home. They are all wonderful people and unless you knew, you would never know the difference between upper management and us as the account managers. We are all treated equally, regardless of our positions.
I enjoy the sincere appreciation I receive from not only my boss, but also the people I work with. A heartfelt “thanks” goes a long way to improving my attitude and productivity.
The Challenge
Whether it’s with a client or employee, I’m challenged with something new everyday. By running into new challenges, I am constantly learning, it doesn’t matter how long you’ve been in the industry, you can always learn something new.
My coworkers have also been great mentors; since working at YES. I’ve learned to pick my battles, don’t sweat the small stuff, worry about right now because tomorrow can wait. If you do not fill a position on time, it isn’t the end of the world. We deliver the right employee, first time, every time; we don’t just send a warm body.
Criticism
Starting in the staffing industry isn’t easy, you have to have some pretty thick skin. One small thing being done incorrectly can cause a lot of big issues. I’ve been lucky enough to work for a company that wants you to succeed and with success comes criticism. It is no secret that I am a sensitive person, I’ve had to overcome a lot of weaknesses to prove myself. We all know that it isn’t easy being told that you’re doing something wrong when you have thought all along you were doing fine. I have a boss that can let you know what you’re doing wrong, but have you leave her office feeling like you’ve accomplished something because you now know what you need to work on and how to do it.
As you can see, working for Your Employment Solutions has been a life-changing experience for me and it’s only the beginning. Finding a job that provides the opportunity to help others in a company that challenges you to succeed has been amazing.
YES is the reason why I love what I do.
