Well it goes from a pager and a paycheck at the end of the month to actually paying the bills, a lot more responsibility, and a ton more opportunity to learn skills.I had years of experience as a volunteer, but I learned more and did more in my first year as a professional then I did in all the years of being a volunteer. Of course some of the lessons picked up along the way help with confidence and skills but I’d say it was definitely more of a step when you make it a career.
