from Salisbury University. It feels surreal to make such a statement and the fact that it is true excites me. I have seen myself grow as a leader, as a teacher and as person. Both of my internship experiences, as different as they were, each prepared me to take on a classroom of my own. My first internship experience at Parkside High School with Mr. Chris Burkhardt was an enjoyable one. When I first began working with Mr. Burkhardt I couldn’t tell if he liked me or if he was simply annoyed by…
Court, worked part-time at the Benjamin Barnes YMCA. I had the opportunity to complete my professional media internship. However, I did not want to stress myself to the point where I went crazy. In the fall of 2015, I had another opportunity to complete my profession media internship. After fully understanding all of the career opportunities IMC could bring, I decided to complete my internship in the office of Institutional Advancement. I chose to work in Institutional Advancement because it’s…
global industry and multicultural understanding--a purpose I know I must serve. And this was what drove me to fly 8,500 miles from the Pearl of the Orient to the Land of the Free. I am Jolina Chiong, currently in a hospitality and tourism management internship here at the Big Easy--New Orleans. It is a commendable collaboration of the U.S. Department of State, J1 Visa sponsors, and host organizations to establish this program as a platform for cultivating young professionals through…
My internship experience has been phenomenal; I am an intern at Eggleston Family Services, a foster care and adoption agency. The first week at my internship they had me review files of different children that are a part of the foster care system. These children have different background and all have experienced trauma due to abuse. Each file is organized in different section detailing the child’s personal information and court orders. It is extremely devastating to read what these children have…
come look to you first because they know it will get done” (2007). I have seen this example of responsibility at my job as well as in my internship. Whenever there’s a task that needs to be done quickly at work I am one of the people that they first go to. I am extremely efficient and have been training new workers after a month of my employment. In my internship I am being responsible with my clients and daily tasks. However, being so open to always wanting to help can lead to taking on more…
with resounding “yes”, I am very grateful that I have had the opportunity to intern and learn at BHFS. Outcome/Goals Before departing to DC, I had two goals, 1) pin point a clear direction to pursue a career in lobbying/government relations 2) experience everything DC has to offer. I believe that following my time at BHFS I will have…
Interning at the Exchange Club Family Center throughout my fall semester has been an enriching experience. Deciding to intern with them has been one of the greatest decisions I have made as an undergraduate student, because I was able to gain first-hand experience in the counseling field. Being the only bilingual intern also gave me the opportunity to witness how family therapy is conducted since I was responsible for facilitating communication between the clinical counselor and our clients.…
and digging out your best suit to begin the search for a summer internship opportunity. Although this could lead to beginning a whole new life halfway across the country for 3 months, the experience is worth it in the end. Summer internships provide students with an invaluable educational opportunity while receiving college credit, gaining experiences within their field of study, and forming professional contacts. Many summer internships allow students to receive college…
Just a month before school ended a friend of mine sent me an email about an internship at a sports media company called Mandalay Sports Media. After doing some research about the company and its background I was excited and eager to find out about the opportunity. I received an email address and sent an email about my interest. A few weeks later I was told I would be able to join the Mandalay team as a summer intern. Sports has always been my passion and learning a new facet about the sports…
