Legal Intern

August - December 2016 • Buffalo, NY

What I liked

Lots of legal experience and a good overview of the field I am interested in.

What I wish was different

Sometimes it was a little disorganized or I didn't have much work to do.

Advice

Engage with as many people as you can and ask them for advice or information on whatever field you're interested in. Ask your supervisor if you can shadow or speak with other departments just to get a feel for other options or what your future work environment may be like.

Legal Intern

June - July 2018 • Buffalo, NY

What I liked

I liked that I had a variety of diverse tasks, rather than a few monotonous ones. Because of this I was able to learn a lot about the legal public sector field.

What I wish was different

I wish I would have been able to do more legal work.

Advice

To take it if you have a chance! It was a great experience and I wouldn’t have done anything differently.
