I liked how much I learned through this internship. I got lots of experience that I wouldn't otherwise get like learning how to train others, time management skills, understanding the behind the scenes of running a business and being a manager.
What I wish was different
I wish I had Saturday's off because it would've been nice to be able to spend time with my friends and family during the summer. Also I wish I had gotten paid more especially since its only commission based so it took me a while to actually start making money, especially since there was not stipend for gas.
Advice
It's really hard mentally and physically but it was a lot of fun so be prepared to be constantly tired.

Marketing Intern
June - August 2018 • Lombard, IL
What I liked
I liked the laid back office culture. I also enjoyed working with fellow interns majority of the time and the managers who oversaw our work were very knowledgable. I learned a lot from office the culture and more about marketing techniques.
What I wish was different
I wish the customers we dealt with had their information ahead of time. Waiting for them to gather all necessary materials were some what a waste of time.
Advice
I would say to be very well known that you need personable skills and have the ability to perform face to face communication. Also it is rigorous hours to work so having another big commitment would not be a good idea.
