Really enjoyed the competitive atmosphere. I learned so much about how to communicate with others and present myself professionally. My co-workers were always cheering each other on and made it one of the most memorable summer experiences I have ever had.
What I wish was different
I wish that I had been more prepared for the interactions that I had faced. Sometimes there were sales opportunities that I could have capitalized on a lot better if I had the knowledge then, that I do now.
Advice
Prepare. This isn't an easy industry to be a part of. Understanding how to communicate efficiently with others is a very important life skill, and if you take it seriously, you will not regret the experience.
