Training has begun! The first day was full of excitement and nervousness. I must admit that my first day of training was not only my first day seeing the RutgersZone, but also my first time in the new Livingston Student Center. New space, new people, new job – eek! Although I’m not usually a fan of icebreakers I was indeed grateful to share a laugh with the six new people that will be sharing this adventure with me.
Our boss, Matt Ferguson, has a way of making each of us feel important in this new journey. Before heading out to dinner we sat as a group and talked briefly about what is expected of us and what we are going to be able to accomplish with our time here. I can honestly say that I have never been more excited to begin a job; to not only be involved on campus but to make a difference. On top of that, it was made clear that we have an opportunity here that we really need to take advantage of – not only are we a new space, we are starting a new tradition for future students. It is our job to start this place off right !
Along with expectations; we also talked about the values that this space is going to offer. The TOKEN Philosophy is something that is going to stick by us to remind us what we are all about. Teamwork, outstanding service, knowledge, experiences, and never settling are all part of the TOKEN Philosophy that we have all promised to believe in and practice. These elements are what is going to make the RutgersZone an awesome business, not only for customers but for us as employees.
To end the night we went out to dinner - Hibachi style! Dinner was a perfect time to learn more about each other and to also learn about what is involved in creating an experience. As we left that night, it was clear to me that the journey in the RutgersZone has officially began! Hope you all enjoy learning more about our training experience and continue to check in to learn all about the RutgersZone!
Keep checking in!
Until next time,
Ashley
Manager of Outreach
