Stephanie Balerud

Through networking, I obtained a part-time legal internship. I worked for a immigration lawyer and helped individuals seeking asylum and immigration in several Canadian provinces. Through this opportunity I was able to gain legal experience and be introduced to professional legal research and writing.

I worked as a server and bartender at a casino in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. I used this opportunity to network with wealthy and business-oriented clientele, obtain impressive interpersonal skills, and increase my ability to multi-task in fast-paced environments.

I worked as a server at this prime location, in which I quickly made an impact by earning priority shifts due to my exceeding work ethic. Through this employment I was entrusted to conduct various tasks, some of which were outside my employment requirements. I also increased my problem-solving and time-management skills.
