Howard University Employer Reviews

Can expect to not be paid for long periods of time.
Unexpected pay cuts.
Rude administration staff

As a student you get paid to plan your schools homecoming. Doesn't get any better than that.

I was in charge of inserting data from each participant we examined and I also assisted in setting up the participants for examination

A typical work day, be on time for work at 8am fix a couple of computers take a couple calls deal with software and assist with customers daily.It was never a hard part about my job because i love doing it so i adapt to almost everything and if i dont know something Im not afraid to ask!

Your experience there will open other opportunities for you.

Long-term, this is little career development and more times than not.

Busy dealing with students on a daily basis focusing on their financial aid. I learned about financial aid, which helped me understand the process I was going through to obtain assistance for college. Management was very relaxed and had a good relationship with their employees; all co-workers got a long. This position was very easy no hard parts of – more... the job. The most enjoyable part of the job, was being able to get along with all employees. – less

WHEN I WORKED AT HOWARD UNIVERSITY I WAS A STUDENT IN AN UPWARD BOUND PROGRAM. I TOOK PRIOR GRADE COURSE CLASSES. THE MANAGEMENT WAS OUTSTANDING. MY PEERS WERE STUDENTS LIKE ME. THE HARDEST PART WAS TAKING ON ALL MY CLASS HOMEWORK AT ONCE. JUST THE OPPROTUNITY TO BE APART OF A WONDERFUL PROGRAM WAS THE MOST ENJOYABLE.

Even though I had wanted to get more interviews, I enjoyed the interviews I had and what I was writing on. I saw films that I was able to critique, and most didn't get into the paper, but it was fun to do.

A place to tutor young high school students about science

Not everyone likes science

Showed leadership skills

Very friendly

Teaching children with no scientific interest

The environment is filled with diversity. The best part is watching young medical students cultivate their skills.

To educate doctors and people on infectious diseases. Learned a lot, traveled a lot, opportunity to deal with people on all levels of business.

Great school learned a great deal of information while working.

having fun,traveling,exploring,and working hard is all its about

Worked in the mailroom. Help sort mail. The people I worked with were great. Management was awesome & the job was pretty laid back.

A typical day at work would be answering questions that were mostly job related but sometimes you would get a few that were totally out of your league. I learned patience and organization. I also learned some software applications. Management were mostly people who have been at the university for years and maybe went to college there. Co-workers were – more... depressed because of the bad moral and lack of employee trust and growth. The hardest part was the new rules that were implemented daily. It was hard to deal with the trial and error type of work that was created on a daily basis due to poor management. The most enjoyable part of this job was the students. Just watching them go after their goals made everything satisfying. – less

Love my co-workers, opportunity to work with the homeless and individuals dealing with addiction and chronic illness

Great balance between students and full time workers. Learned to do different jobs around the office that can be beneficial in any office setting.

I was able to learn and develop film production skills that allowed me to graduate from college.

WORKING AT HOWARD SHOWED ME A LOT ABOUT KEEPING YOUR WORK AREA NEAT AND CLEAN,HAVING RESPECT FOR OTHERS,,GETTING ALONG WITH MY COWOKERS ETC..

I normally get to the lab about 8am and i work until about 9pm. I have acquired skills in organic synthesis, characterizing compounds and thin films utilizing different techniques. The most enjoyable part of the job is working with my co-workers. They have definitely helped me become a better team worker and a better team leader. Being a graduate student – more... is a challenging experience but very rewarding. – less
