Dartmouth Fellow / Junior Associate

July - November 2021 • San Francisco, CA

What I liked

I loved being in an environment that pushes me to embrace high levels of responsibility. At Close Concerns, I was challenged with new tasks every day, and the learning never stopped. I came in not knowing much about diabetes, and now I walk away with so many valuable lessons. I also enjoyed getting personalized time with my boss and the associates. The mentorship component of an internship I think is very important as well, and being able to learn from those older, wiser, and more experienced than me has been wonderful.

What I wish was different

I wish it would have been longer! Should've started earlier perhaps.

Advice

I would say that you must be very flexible and willing to shift priorities. Embrace whatever challenge comes your way, and do not feel discouraged when a day is difficult
