Marketing and Finanace Intern
May 2016 - August 2019 • Rexburg, ID
What I liked
There was a lot of variety in my daily expectations. I had opportunities to train and implement new things, and I felt like over time, I was able to play a larger role within the organization.
What I wish was different
City Government is tough because there is a certain level of resistance to change in my experience. Sometimes it felt like we were doing things a certain way just because that's how it had been done for the last 20 years.
Advice
Don't hesitate to apply and interview for positions that seem way out of your skill level. I felt very under qualified for this position, but I ended up learning a lot and becoming a valued memeber of the team.
