The last job I had was my Human Resources internship for East West Tea Company (Yogi Tea) in Eugene, Oregon. I applied to this position back in the Spring of 2019, and worked there the summer of 2019, and winter break 2019 and the summer of 2020. My only job description I had was from when I first applied back in the spring of 2019. When looking at the job description, I was influenced to apply for the position because I was intrigued with the type of work and projects I would be doing. Ultimately I applied because I felt the job description provided a wide variety of experience that I would be gaining throughout my internship experience.
While my job did match the job description for my original summer that I interned there, the other times it did not. When I came back for a month during winter break, my job description was not updated to reflect the work I was doing. Additionally when I returned the following summer, I did not receive an updated job description either. The main difference was that I was working on different projects than I was the summer before. Although there were some basic similarities between the original job description and the actual work I was doing, the majority was different.
I unfortunately could not find a copy of my job description, but I thought one thing that was very interesting during my experience as an intern was seeing them shift to a new style of JD’s. I enjoyed seeing their strategy behind their new process and the new format.
