Can you share a memorable story or experience from your time with STA?
I would say my most memorable story would be the day of my in-person interview. I came into the conference room to a 3-person crew and once we got talking I immediately knew that this was the change in career I had been looking for. My employment at STA has changed my life for the better and I am truly grateful for it every day.
Every line of work has its ups and downs. What helps to motivate you during challenging times?
To piggyback off of my response to the last question- My employment at STA has changed my life for the better and I am truly grateful for it every day. I feel valued here and I truly enjoy helping to get issues resolved/coming up with solutions and ideas for future projects/changes. On top of that, I work with a wonderful team day in and day out, I truly could not get through my days without them.
What advice or encouragement would you offer to someone considering joining the STA Family?
Do it! STA has so much to offer and really knows how to show their employees that they are valued as people. I find most places of employment these days have lost that factor, but when it all boils down, everyone is just a person who deserves to be valued, and STA does a great job of remembering that.
