Why E@W is the Smart Choice for Students
For students looking for meaningful part-time work, David encourages them to consider E@W:
“If you’re a student looking for part-time work, E@W is worth considering. Not only do you earn a paycheck, but you also get tuition assistance—which helps with college expenses. Beyond that, you gain real-world professional experience and the chance to develop skills to set you up for future success. It’s more than just a job—it’s an opportunity to grow while still focusing on your education.”
Working with Industry Leaders
One of the standout aspects of David’s experience has been the opportunity to work with a major company like Intuit while still in school.
“One of the biggest benefits of working for a large company like Intuit is building connections with experienced professionals. You can network with people who can become mentors, offer guidance, and potentially open doors for you after graduation. On top of that, you’re gaining real-world experience—applying what you’ve learned in class to actual professional situations. It also pushes you to step outside your comfort zone, which has helped me build confidence and tackle new challenges head-on.”
