Describe your visit and what did you gain from the experience?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

During my visit I was able to sit in appointments and see how the doctors dealt with the animals and the cases that were presented to them. I was able to scrub in and see a spay procedure be done<\/strong>. The doctor explained everything he was doing so I was able to understand every step of the procedure.<\/span><\/p>\n

How did this experience influence or connect to your future career plans\/goals?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

I have always wanted to be a veterinarian<\/strong> so I was so happy to be able to participate in the alumni shadow program because I could experience what a day in a veterinary hospital is like. There was so much I learned in that one day. <\/span><\/p>\n

What is some helpful advice your alumni host shared with you?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

One piece of advice my alumni host shared with me was to be open minded<\/strong> for the different opportunities there are to work with animals. Working with animals is not necessarily always a hospital setting, so he told me to get out there and to try different things! <\/span>The alumni advised me to become involved in volunteer work early and to really get experience with working with animals. It can be as simple as volunteering at shelters or joining summer programs. He told me to pay attention to vet school prerequisites but to also be a well-rounded studen<\/strong>t in other subjects as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why would you recommend the Alumni Job Shadowing Program to other students?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

I would recommend the Alumni Job Shadowing Program to other students because it is a great way for them to see what goes on in a regular day for their desired career. If a student is unsure of what they want to pursue, the alumni shadow program is a great way for them to explore new things!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
