Michael Page International

Recruitment Intern

May - July 2019 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I loved gaining exposure to a sales environment, developing my "professional socializing" skills, and expanding my social network. A lot of the teams were very warm in this office and were eager to accept me as an "apprentice" of sorts. I also really learned how to negotiate and be persuasive in business.

What I wish was different

I wish that I hadn't had to travel so much to get to the city. Plus, it can be rough having to wear business professional to work every day. I also wish there had been a bit more recognition shown for when I was doing well in my work.

Advice

If you don't enjoy a "sales environment", with lots of competition and results-based motivation, this is not the place for you. If you thrive in an environment with high-pressure like this, you will do really well here!
