        Pros

        The coworkers are the best aspect to the job and the fact that you learn to grow thick skin. It is a good job to grow in customer service and learning how to work with different people

        Cons

        Downside is that customers can be very rude to you. However fortunately with my coworkers and supervisors they made it better and easier to deal with. The pay is low and there is no opportunity for full time. You can burnout quickly

          There's a lot of walking depending on the size of the theatre, but that's really not that bad.

                      Do you experience that how long the hiring process would take at Thermo Fisher? I got my second interview with hiring manager at the beginning of November but I haven’t heard nothing from them. When I’ve emailed them to check in they just said that the process would be slow, no time frame. I would be able to get an offer soon from other company but work as contractor. Should I wait for Thermo Fisher?

                      Booz Allen Hamilton Recently applied and I've been referred for an interview! Any tips on interviewing with Booz Allen? And if I am being asked to complete clearance and background upfront, is this a good indicator for being hired?

                      Alex L.

                      Applied for a job a few weeks back, got a call from HR yesterday morning about an interview next week. She mentioned she'd shoot me an email with all the interview details, but so far, my inbox is empty. Assuming I'll hear from her early next week, is it normal for them to expect me to show up for an in-person interview on short notice, like couple days?
