Working in Marion County
The businesses in Marion County (and their owners) are not just focused on their bottom line. They have generous hearts and care about the success of the county’s non-profits, civic organizations, schools, etc. Our county is strong because these entities work together to build our communities up. When all these groups support one another, the result is not just a great place to work, but to live, to grow, to learn and to play.
Living in Marion County
10 years ago, I would have answered that the best thing about living in Marion County is the small town feel close to big city amenities. After living in Pella longer and raising two young boys in this community, my answer has changed. The best thing about living in Marion County is the people. From teachers to business owners, neighbors to daycare providers…living here has provided us with a village of people that are passionate about continuing and improving upon the high quality of life that Marion County provides.
Career Advice to Teens
Marketing a company is easiest when the business’ values and beliefs align with your own. Find a company that you are proud to represent and the rest of the pieces will fall into place.
