## A Day In the Life of a Yes& Human Resources Coordinator

My name is Casey Dillon, I’m an HR (Human Resources) Coordinator and one of Yes&’s newest hires. I attended the University of New Hampshire, majoring in Communication: Business Applications, and joined Yes& as an intern in 2022. My mentor, Ebony, was super flexible with my school schedule and supported me throughout my senior year. The HR Operations (HROPS) team challenged and trusted me to try new things and get my hands on projects. It was not a “fluff” internship; I learned a great amount and grew even more interested in the HR field. I joined the team full-time in May of 2023 as an HR Coordinator. My transition was seamless, and everything is going great!
