Supply Chain Intern

June - August 2020 • Basking Ridge, NJ

What I liked

Everyone was so friendly and willing to help. I was tasked to learn a whole new software and present progress and results by the end.

What I wish was different

Fewer all-intern programs. There was too much in attempt to compensate for the virtual internship, but it ended up taking away from my actual work time. Also, the Intern Group Project was difficult to coordinate because we didn't really know each other and took some time to figure out how to work together

Advice

You learn so much more than your discipline and you learn to be a better contributor and leader.

Come into the experience with open eyes and a curiosity to learn - there are over 10 different departments so you will not know which you are joining until you already accept the offer.
