Tips for Internship

I feel Avoiding negativity should definitely be first on my list, because I wouldn’t want to work for somebody that is rude and disrespectful in any department. I can understand them being rude to me; however I wouldn’t be rude to them back. I will make sure I treat everyone the same way I would like to be treated. To follow up with that, I would like to explain why my next choice is tackling tasks with enthusiasm. I love to see the reaction on my coworkers face when they ask me to do something, and my response is “YES”. Being willing to do whatever it takes to gain experience is all I live for.

                “Getting as much exposure as possible”, is a great tip. This tip helps me showoff my skills while keeping up with the pace of the company. I try to focus on results and staying consistent, this will show that I am reliable. Finding a mentor is also very important. I wouldn’t feel very comfortable asking my manager questions when their will be mintors in my department that are willing to answer any questions I might have. Asking my boss tons of questions will only make me look bad when other resources are available. I have already begun forming personal goals for myself that I will achieve at my internship. I think this is a good way to practice exciting short term goals.

                Having regular meeting with coworkers is very important. Meetings help everybody in your department stay on the same page and get more work done correctly. Asking questions is also a very important factor while I’m in internship. You must be strong enough to stick your head out there and communicate that you need help or that you don’t know because in that second you will be answered and then I can continue working effectively and correctly.

Never shun a Chance to Learn more about the company.

•  Take a chance to learn about that company, attend after work events and build a relationship with the company.

Networking is key!

• I will enjoy growing my network to better my future career.
