Volt is a community

Volt is the company that I work for, and we are truly a community. Every person working there, has the same interests in hand. We are all striving to help the company grow, to get new customers and candidates and to satisfy them all. We have different offices with different niche recruiting, but we all work as a team. We work with the same customers and have to direct candidates to other offices, helping everyone out. We all spend 8 hours or more a day focusing solely on the task at hand; building the company. We share the same love of our job and want to be there. Every day we help the community around us get jobs, and help large companies find qualified workers. Right now the economy is rough, and the biggest thing holding us together is the fact that we are all experiencing it together. We all know where we need to get and what we need to get there. We also all feel the stresses of others, as we feel them too, so we can help each other move past them and brighten our spirits.
There is always going to be occasional tension. Working in close quarters for so long causes that no matter who you are or what you are doing. Processes get done incorrectly, effecting another. Or boundaries get crossed. But as a whole, we are a tight nit community, with shared interests and through thick and thin, we will be there for one another.

I am the closest thing to being an outsider that their is in this community. I am 18, and have been with the company for just short of a year. The youngest person in the office other than me, is at least 10 years older than I am, most being closer to 20+. This does cause some separation, as sometimes I feel they don't think I can handle the industry. But I always prove them wrong. Beyond this factor, I still fill a very important piece to the puzzle that is our community. I have responsibilities that play a part in the survival of the company. I get along with all my co-workers, and especially through this tough period, we have become not only a closer community, but a family. A family who supports one another when needed, who picks each other up when we fall, and who holds each other up when we tremble. I wouldn't want to be a part of any other community when it comes to my job. I have a real career ahead of me, and the people I work with make it enjoyable to be there. The industry itself is extremely rewarding, as I get to help those in need all day long. My community is satisfying in every sense of the word.
