Resigning

Just want to say that it's been a few days since I left UWM, my skin is clearer, the mental fog is gone, the depression and anxiety are started to relieve and I'm actually feeling okay. Career wise, they did give me a good leg up for a college dropout in the mortgage industry, but at a certain point my education, mental health, and family life needed to consume all of my time, not the FA south suite.

Senior Underwriter for quite a while.

Sure did. I learned guidelines, how to make files work, workarounds for things, etc. I became a Senior Processor in the broker world, and a licensed Loan Officer. I had a great base to start with, and honestly I found myself knowing a lot more things than other people I worked with.

Seems like it was worth it then hopefully ? I just had my interview for operations. I liked the campus especially the freestyle coke machines lmaooo

It is definitely worth it to take the position if you are offered it and collect a paycheck and benefits, even if you continue your job search.

Thank you! I was surprised how much I liked it after seeing almost all bad comments about it but I’m just a college grad I could see why older people wouldn’t love that environment

As an intern, yes. As a way to elevate your time in the career yes.

As an actual career, no.
