Service Marketing Intern

May 2019 • Center Valley, PA

The structure of the program offers support from both your manager/department and the interns' HR manager, as well as your fellow interns. I also liked being given meaningful projects within my department and being given opportunities to be exposed to many different projects while there.

What I wish was different

Higher pay. Received 2 other offers with higher pay, but took this knowing the position was more of what I actually wanted, and am glad I did.

Advice

Connect with as many people across other departments as possible. Take on increasing responsibility to show what you can do while you are there.
