Legal Intern
May - June 2018 • Rochester, NY
What I liked
I learned a lot every single day I went in to work. What I was doing was also high-impact and I was able to interact with clients and get to know one of the most brilliant advocates of civil rights at the firm.
What I wish was different
I wish I had the time to work more hours.
Advice
Get your foot in the door and put yourself out there. I was heinously under-qualified for this internship but they gave me an interview and demonstrated my ability to problems solve and think critically. I'm an engineering student who interned at a law firm. That's wild.
