I learned a lot while conducting 137 hours of observation, and overviewing the roles and responsibilities of each division within the Sheriff’s Office. My favorite experience during my internship was learning about criminal investigation techniques and participating in community policing events.
What I wish was different
I wish the internship could have been longer so that I could spend more time involved in research projects to assist the Sheriff’s Office mission statement.
Advice
One piece of advice about my experience is be consistent with questions towards individuals working in the profession you desire to be in one day. Have a desire to be a student beyond receiving a college degree. Being a student is a life long career.
