I really loved that they hand the project completely over to you and your co-conference executive. You are responsible for actually executing almost every aspect of the 4-day overnight conference. Preparing for an event involving 100 students, 25 staff, and 10 keynote and workshop speakers benefited my networking, organization, and leadership skills. You also work alongside a team of approximately 10 other interns that you form really close friendships with and you learn so much from their projects as well!
What I wish was different
We had to tackle some tasks after we no longer officially worked for the Asian Liver Center because the office was too busy to handle the grant budget reporting and it was due.
Advice
Be ready to work hard (~43 hours/week) but also make friends with your fellow interns.
