I liked the opportunity to network with people from different parts of their aviation career.
What I wish was different
I wished this would be often when there were networking events to enhance it like a real life experience and more connections to different types of aviation.
Advice
Just be familiar with the area, and add a phrase that gives a smile. It is easy.

Business Continuity & Emergency Response Intern

I enjoyed being part of a program that was specifically geared towards undergraduate and graduate students that allowed us to network not only with senior leadership but with each other as well (and the flight benefits!!).

Business Continuity and Emergency Response Team Intern
June 2018 • Long Island City, NY
What I liked
I loved being apart of a team that worked directly to help prevent, improve, and act on crisis events. We worked together to help solve problems, help people, and make a difference in what was happening in the world around us.
What I wish was different
I wouldn't change a thing.
Advice
By being able to try out a field I wasn't sure about in real time and with real experiences, I was able to figure out what career path is best suited for me. It really got me excited for my future and what I could be potentially doing once I graduate. Even if you aren't sure about a certain field or a certain position, just try it. You will never truly know what it will be like until you try it for yourself.
