one day, four new clevermethoders.

June 30, 2016

This summer, we coincidentally had four new employees all start on the same day. One month later, they reflect on their experiences so far.

Cailey Bardwell

Position: Project Coordinator
Education: B.S. in New Media Marketing from Rochester Institute of Technology ’16
Feelings about clevermethod so far: I love clevermethod! I interned here last summer, so I already knew I was coming into a really awesome company.
Strangest office occurrence: Life size hamster balls…
Do you participate in the office GOT conversations? Nope, but I still get the weekly ‘Do you watch Game of Thrones?’ question from Brandon.
How many times has Sam convinced you to eat out? None so far – it has taken a lot of will power!

Eric Hunt

Position: Application Developer
Education: B.S. in New Media Interactive Development from Rochester Institute of Technology ’16
Feelings about clevermethod so far: Everyone and everything has been great so far! I have really enjoyed getting to know everyone over the past month. It has been a very fun and productive experience, and I have already learned so many new things! I’m excited to see what my future here holds and am happy to be a part of the team.
Strangest office occurrence: Nothing really at this point, but I did have to have my car jump started because I forgot my keys in the ignition with the accessories on, which is more embarrassing than strange.
Do you participate in the office GOT conversations? I try, but I am only caught up on the first season, unfortunately.
How many times has Sam convinced you to eat out? Only once so far! I had my first Moe’s experience with Sam and Victoria last week.

Eli Melas

Position: Marketing Analyst Intern
Education: John Carrol University ’17
Feelings about clevermethod so far: I am very happy to be working at clevermethod.  It’s such a friendly and casual company, and we work with some pretty cool clients as well.
Strangest office occurrence: During my first week of work, I was driving to work and my glasses broke in the car.  I still hadn’t really met everyone in the office and I needed to fix my glasses to last me the rest of the day.  So, I had to introduce myself to someone (Brian) and also had to explain my situation and ask him for some scotch tape.  He was cool about it but he probably thought I was crazy.
Do you participate in the office GOT conversations? Yes, I love Game of thrones!
How many times has Sam convinced you to eat out? None

Kristina Robinson

Position: Web Development Intern
Education: B.A. in Web Design from Alfred State ’16
eelings about clevermethod so far: I’m super excited to be working at clevermethod, it’s a casual and friendly work environment, but super productive! I’ve learned an incredible amount since I’ve started and I’m so happy to be a part of the team.
Strangest office occurrence: When there was a small parking war with Josh’s Corvette VIP Guest of the Week.
Do you participate in the office GOT conversations?Absolutely, theories for dayz.
How many times has Sam convinced you to eat out? Convinced me to eat out: 0. Convinced him to eat out: 1. How the tables have turned.
