I was able to gain experience in a field that I was thinking about going in to. It helped me see what it was really like.
What I wish was different
I wish I had better hours.
Advice
If you need experience hours you need to start way in advance because it take a long time to get all the hours.

Software Engineering Intern
June 2017 • Murray, UT
What I liked
I learned SO much. Intermountain isn't crazy high pressure but I really felt driven by my coworkers and especially my fellow interns to learn and to reach my best potential
What I wish was different
Some of the hardware we were given as interns wasn't the best, we didn't have cubicles and largely worked in more social working spaces.
Advice
Learn as much as you can! This is a real world job and they are investing in your future, take away as much from it as you can, it will pay off later I promise!
