"I've worked as a student web developer at the Boalt law school at UC Berkeley for about a year and half now. I've found it very enlightening and challenging. I was trained quickly in PHP, SQL, and HTML/CSS and able to begin my own projects within a couple of weeks. Within half a year I was able to advance and take on more important priority projects. My co-workers and boss have been exceptionally helpful and willing to answer any of my questions. This job gave me the passion for web development."

"I've worked for UC Berkeley as a graduate student instructor for over 5 years. I've had an excellent experience teaching undergraduates, who are bright and prepared to tackle difficult and interesting questions. UCB is clearly at the forefront of education, and I'd recommend to anyone to look for a teaching job at the company."

"I've interned at UCOP for the summer (2019). As a security information intern, there's not much to do at the beginning except for basic training. The amount of workload for the position was very easy and could get boring."

"Worked as a post doc for three years. Experiences depend a great deal on who your particular PI is, with some great and others not-so-great. Seek out mentorship in whatever form you can! Health card benefits are great but salary will be much lower than industry jobs in the area."

"I work in a academic lab, so it's not rally a company. Overall, I like working in my lab as an undergraduate researcher, but it's just a position to get research experience and something to write my honors thesis about. I don't really get paid or anything like a typical employee"
