Software Engineering Intern

May - December 2018 • Fort Lauderdale, FL

What I liked

Amazing people, interns treated like full time employees, wonderful culture. Really own your own project, I spent my time writing a production-level app that I got to take from inception to production release. A unique experience I don't expect to find anywhere else.

What I wish was different

At times I wished I had a little more direction on my project.

Advice

Ask questions and get involved. You'll have a boring time if you don't make any effort to go to techSTAR events (or company events).

IT Security Analyst Intern

July - December 2019 • Lowell, MA

What I liked

The community of the team. No one hogs information and everyone is available to help you and be a resource. The management team is always offering to help and is extremely encouraging.

What I wish was different

I wish this co-op was longer. I had such a great time working here and feel like I have learned so much that I just want to be able to continue learning here with this team and make even more of a difference in the company.

Advice

Just be yourself. This team was so open and honest and unapologetically unique that I felt so comfortable speaking my mind and asking for help. Even in environments very different to this, sticking to what you believe and being yourself is never something bad.

Software Quality Engineer Intern

January - August 2019 • Lowell, MA

What I liked

I liked that I was welcomed on the team and given respect and freedom to work on a flexible schedule. I never felt over-managed, but I always had help when I needed it. I was able to build up a significant amount of technical knowledge and help train some of the next set of co-ops.

I ended up working on legacy test maintenance most of the time. I would have liked being able to work on test framework updates or writing more new tests.

Talent Acquisition and Analytics Intern

June - August 2019 • Chelmsford, MA

What I liked

I loved the workplace culture! They have this incredible work-life balance that was so cool to see as an intern. They also really care about their interns and believe that they are the future of the workforce. I love that! I got to interview as many people as I wanted within the company to help me figure out what I want to do when I graduate. Also I had REAL work to do, not just busy work. What I did contributed to the department on the whole, which was incredible and meaningful.

What I wish was different

There's really nothing I would change about my experience. It was life-changing.

Advice

Network as much as possible! You have this incredible opportunity and group of people who want to help, so take advantage of it and get out of your comfort zone.

Video Production Intern

May - August 2019 • Lowell, MA

What I liked

Flexible hours - as long as I worked 40 hours per week, I was able to go into and leave work whenever suited me. The open time off policy meant I could go to appointments without the fear of asking for time off. The commute was less than five minutes from my house. The wages are competitive - no where else had offered even close to the amount of money Kronos did. I was able to join real meetings regarding real projects that went live - it was such a rewarding experience.
