WHAT IS THE A TYPICAL DAY LIKE AS AN INTERN, ANY CHALLENGING OR EXCITING ASPECTS?
I come into the office and ask my supervisor for my daily assignments and continue working on them until the end of the day at 5pm, all while working along a fellow intern in charge of PR messages and my supervisor to achieve a good product. The most challenging aspect of my internship is learning to better manage my time and work more efficiently. The most exciting aspect of my internship is being able to write and go through with a proposal for a major promotional project. What surprised me most was the sheer amount of friendly and welcoming people here, and the most meaningful experience are the relationships I formed and the experience I gained.
