Local Foreigner

Intern

June - September 2018 • New York City, NY

What I liked

I liked learning about the travel industry and all the of the details involved in coordinating a successful trip. I learned a lot about international suppliers, accommodations, touring experiences, and restaurants all of which I found very interesting. The office was also very small so I got a great feel for how it was structured/how it operates.

What I wish was different

Most of my work involved managing the CRM software, which I enjoyed, but I would also have liked to see more of the trip-planning and itinerary-building processes.

Advice

Working in an industry you are passionate about it makes a big difference. I have also found that internships with smaller companies tend to be more engaging/there is more to do
