Experiences at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital

St. Jude prides themselves on hiring the "best of the best", the "cream of the crop". One must be intellegent, hard working, self-motivated, with a very clean background. I am extremely grateful to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital for the experiences and knowledge I have gained by being an employee of theirs. I am honored to have been chosen by such a world class, renown organization. St. Jude is one of the best places in the world and I will always give to them in some capacity....
