Relaxed environment, fun to see homes built before your eyes.

A little more structure and communication from corporate

It is a stressful and busy job. You have to work hard or you will sink. Don’t be afraid to communicate over and over again. Cool to see the construction field.

Marketing Intern

April - August 2018 • Scottsdale, AZ

What I liked

Gained tons of useful information that not only applied to Marketing but could be useful in any field/industry. This was a great way to get a feel for what corporate America is like, so I was thankful I was able to share this experience with such a great team at Meritage.

What I wish was different

I wish the internship had lasted longer than just a few months.

Advice

Listen to anything people are talking to you about/helping you with, no matter what their position. It is the perfect time to start learning what is needed to be successful in a career.

Land Acquisitions Intern

May 2018 • Orlando, FL

What I liked

Being able to apply the skills I learned from my real estate classes. Having the freedom to be self sufficient and deliver items at a comfortable pace. Being part of the team as opposed to "the intern".

What I wish was different

A little more time learning about other departments

Advice

Get to know everyone, being part of the culture is key; ask plenty of questions, they know you don’t know everything and expect to teach you; stay curious and humble, always search for answers you didn’t know you were looking for and don’t assume you know more than someone else.
