intern

May 2019 • Durham, NC

What I liked

Great coworkers, no expectation to work overtime, decent workload and I felt like I learned a lot.

What I wish was different

Sometimes I was stuck in a holding pattern for parts of my project that I wish hadn't happened, but a lot of that was because over the summer a lot of international team members go on vacation (or were on COVID trials), which I'm not going to begrudge them.

Advice

Prepare for early mornings some days! Most of my team members are in Europe or India, which means a lot of my meetings are between 7:30AM and 9AM. Also, ask for what you need! There have been weeks where I needed to take a step back because of classwork and my boss was more than accommodating.

Consulting Intern

June - July 2018 • Istanbul, Turkey

What I liked

Learning the stages behind consulting and how consultants start from a bigger question and then go down into the details, gather data, and then go back to the bigger question. I find the fragmentation of a question in order to study it is a very different approach which I started to implement in my daily decision making as well.

What I wish was different

Summer wasn’t a very busy season for the company I interned for so I wish there were more ongoing projects.

Advice

Create your own opportunities. Ask people what they are doing. Ask if you can help them. Ask if they can chat to you about their job. An internship is a learning opportuntity given to you and try to get as many things out of it.
