What I wish was different
My position, by nature, allowed me to work cross-functionally. This allowed me to see the larger scope and context of my work. I understand from other interns that in a past year's internship, as part of the internship the interns met with employees from different functional areas to learn how their positions all fit together in the context of the software development process. I think that's a great idea, especially for interns in roles that may by nature be more isolated (e.g., QA/software dev intern roles).
