I loved my work on the Secondary Marketing team and enjoyed my coworkers as well! The CEO is active within the company and you feel appreciated for the work you do. The company encourages you to shadow other teams and move to other teams if you feel it fits you better.

What I liked
UWM was an amazing experience for me. I was able to make outbound calls, learn how to sell, have selling competitions, work closely with a mentor, go to leadership meetings and executive board member meetings, participate in volunteering, and host my fundraiser with my summer team member team. There are so many opportunities for growth there, easy to talk to the executive team, have lunch with them, and ask them any questions you may have. It is an open floor layout, where everyone is right by each other, so it is easy to talk to co-workers, ask questions, and learn from others around you. My summer team member team and I were fortunate enough to have lunch with Mat Ishbia, the CEO. I also had lunch with the EVP of Sales and had my parents join me. It was an amazing place to grow my skills, better my mindset, and confidence, and network and grow in connections.
What I wish was different
Nothing
Advice
Be open-minded, ask a bunch of questions, use all the resources provided, be yourself, and try to meet as many people as you can. It is a huge campus and has a lot of perks. Make sure to take advantage of everything offered to you.
