Almadan Inc.; Amherst, MA

My primary job responsibilities were to help a compulsive hoarder clean out his apartment to pass inspections from the state as well as help him recognize his compulsive hording patterns. As time went on I gained the responsibility of assisting with his personal finances.

I would rate this field placement as excellent in all categories and i would recommend this site for other students without hesitation. My client responded well to people of college age, showing how students can have a greater effect than others for this particular job at times. The job is difficult at times and requires a lot of personal initiative from students yet at the same time this presents major learning opportunities.
