Good opportunity to learn about how municipal government works. Great experience in an office environment and friendly coworkers. Working for the Clerk/Treasurer department I learned a lot about how elections are run on a municipal level which has been very interesting.
What I wish was different
Better communication with different departments.
Advice
Depending on the time of year, the Clerk/Treasurer's office can be either really busy or really slow. Slow days can get boring, but busy days can be exciting and fun. The Clerk/Treasurer also works with the public which has its benefits and drawbacks.
