I have had the privilege to job shadow at a local animal clinic for three years now, and I have found it to be the most pivotal aspect of me solidifying my career choice. Observing the veterinarians while they work in the animal clinic and gaining a hands-on experience reassured me that this is what I want to do with my life.
