Experience at NCCS
"I absolutely enjoyed my time here at NCCS. Coworkers were incredibly friendly and extremely open to giving you time whenever you had a problem. I learned about how NCCS functioned and what important services they provided. Most importantly, the project I had was extremely interesting and forced me to delve into areas in which I was initially not familiar with. The whole experience was extremely rewarding."
