9. Influence
I really learned a lot from all of the people that I job shadowed. I might consider this profession. I really liked the variety of surgeries in a day and how many people are on a team working with these patients. You have to heavily rely on your co-workers and I enjoy working on a team. I thought the overall experience was very informational and exciting.
