Mining Engineering Intern
May - August 2019 • Grand Rivers, KY
What I liked
I was able to rotate through all the different departments. I loved that I got exposed to all different aspects and wasn't stuck driving a haul truck all summer.
What I wish was different
I wish I had gotten a bit more time working with management.
Advice
Take everything with a grain of salt. Just because you might be doing something as an intern that you would never do once you were a fulltime employee doesn't mean you cant learn something that might be useful in the future.

Ready Mix Operations Intern
May - August 2018 • San Antonio, TX
What I liked
The pay and people were amazing.
What I wish was different
A more organized internship program to actually learn all the aspects that go into the ready mix operations more in depth.
Advice
They don’t have a set organized program, so when you’re around those knowledgeable of the product, ask a lot of questions to learn anything.
