Lifeguard at Hershey’s Mill
Throughout high school, and in the summer of 2016 following my study abroad trip, I worked as a lifeguard at the Hershey’s Mill. As part of my job training, i earned and maintained Ellis certifications in life guarding, CPR, and first aid to be prepared to act in an emergency situation.
The bulk of my job consisted of communicating and enforcing facility rules with members to ensure safety, handling customer service issues in collaboration with fellow employees, and assisting in maintaining the facility by cleaning and adding chemicals to pool. I also assisted the pool manager in training new hires and scheduling shifts.
