Pros
Opporrunity to work with amazing faculty/staff (essential for building your network professionally/academically) Chance to work on research, including data collection, analysis, and report writing (maybe even publish a thing or two!) Work on public health topics that are interesting to you/related to your studies bosses are flexible with your work hours/schedule b/c they know you're a student (esp around exams/holidays)
Cons
hiring process is abysmal, i knew i had the job on June 2022, submitted my documents on August 2022, wasn't officially on payroll until October or novemeber due to delays. Timesheets are still submitted IN WORD FORMAT, so you manually calculate everything, and you have to estimate what you'll work on week2 of your timesheet, because you have to submit before you finish working for that week, so can get annoying if you go under or over what you estimate.
