Software Developer Intern
May - July 2019 • McLean, VA
What I liked
I loved the independence. I was a researcher working on an IRAD, doing work that I really enjoyed. At first, I was a little nervous because I have never had this kind of freedom before. I wasn't sure if I could pace and motivate myself through the summer. But I quickly came to realize that I really enjoyed this level of independence, where it was entirely up to me on what I wanted to do.
What I wish was different
I wish there were more time dedicated to interacting with the other interns in the program. At the Mclean location, there were only around 10 other interns, and it was quiet for most of the day.
Advice
Come in with a brand new mindset--this internship is not like that of other companies. It is highly independent, and it is entirely up to you to get things done. Nobody is going to be around to push you, you need to push yourself.
