I liked how much real world experience I got from working with huge data files, shadowing a project manager and learning what it's like to be in a big corporate company.
What I wish was different
I wish the whole thing hadn't been virtual (because of covid) and that I had been able to connect with more people.
Advice
Talk to people and get involved in things! Try to network as much as possible.

Prototype Design Intern
February 2019 • Santa Clara, CA
What I liked
I enjoy the company culture and the people I worked with. When I don't possess the skills needed for a project, I learn the skills I need to become qualified.
What I wish was different
More clear role definition.
Advice
NETWORKING! Grow your network, talk to people. Ask for help. Don't ask to do something, just do it (use common sense with this one though). Take initiative. If you don' t have enough work to do, ask for more work to do.

Information Security Intern
July - August 2018 • Stockholm, Stockholm County
What I liked
Everyone was really friendly and helpful. The internship was very diverse ; I was involved in global communication and privacy assessments— which gave me a little taste of a field I would consider a full time career in.
What I wish was different
I wouldn’t have wanted to change anything, I really liked the diversity of the internship and the area I ended up doing it in.
Advice
Be open minded and try to learn as much as possible. Ask questions about the things you don’t understand.
