intern
May - July 2018 • New Delhi, Delhi
What I liked
I enjoyed the fact that my ideas and contributions were taken seriously, all the work I did was actually used in my supervisors job. They taught me what to do, and then took my suggestions.
What I wish was different
I wish the work was more tailored to my Economics major, but nonetheless it was an enjoyable experience.
Advice
I would advise all interns to take advantage of the company they are working in, and really make use of the opportunities they offer. Volunteer to do extra work, make the effort and your superiors will really appreciate it.
