There were a lot of times I would be sitting around waiting for a job. I wish I had been kept more busy.
Advice

Sales Consultant
May 2019 • Emporia, KS
What I liked
Working with customers and using what I have been learning in school to sell items and make commission. I also enjoyed experiencing the "business world" for the first time and what moving up the ladder looks like.
What I wish was different
I wish the training's were more one on one because then I would've felt more comfortable taking initiative on the operations side of the store instead of feeling like I didn't know anything.
Advice
It's a hard learning curve and it takes a lot of time to become comfortable with sales, don't give up and keep improving.

May - August 2018 • Philadelphia, PA
What I liked
Good pay for an internship, testing new technologies on the network, supporting engineers and taking on some of their day to day work.
What I wish was different
I wish it had been in New York so I could have extended it into a co-op as my manager had suggested.
Advice
This was my second internship at Sprint and I was able to come back simply by staying in contact with the people I met there. Making sure you interact with other people on your team and making connections while working at a company is very important.
