I receive news letters sharing the available opportunities with me. One of these opportunities was with Michigan Education Corps. I applied for the position and received an interview. I did not think that I was the perfect fit for the job but I had a friend at Grand Valley State University that seemed like the perfect fit and I informed her of the opportunity. She is currently working at Michigan Education Corps and is very happy with the experiences it has given her.”
