per hr
FInally I worked at a warehouse where I started making $11.50 per hr

When I went away to college I worked at the restaurant for 1 year and a half
Then when I moved back home I worked at the grocery store for 6 months
Finally I worked at the warehouse for 1 year

7. Why i.c.stars?
Before i.c.stars I was working at the warehouse and at the time it was cool
because that was the highest paying job I’ve ever had, but I knew I couldn’t stay
there for too long. I always had dreams of work in IT and when I was in college
taking my first software programing class my teacher spoke to us as if one day
we would be doing an internship and at the time I didn’t think too much of it.
When I came across the opportunity it was the perfect time for me to take the
next step in my journey to finding my career, and now I’m here in pursuit, to
fulfilling my dreams

8. Acknowledgements
I’m honored to be apart of this opportunity here at i.c.stars because it’s rare
that you come across opportunities like this. I believe i.c.stars will play a huge
role in my successful journey and I’d like to thank all the staff and everyone
involved in making this program run successfully and I definitely plan on
becoming a community leader and sharing information about this program to
everyone that I know.
