IT Security Intern

May 2019 • Columbus, OH

I received hands-on experience with a variety of different security tools. I was familiar with every person in our department. The company culture was positive. My manager gave me thought provoking solo projects and allowed me to collaborate on two very important projects.

What I wish was different

Nothing. I could not have asked for a better internship experience

Human Resources Intern

June - August 2020 • Columbus, OH

What I liked

I was able to gain cross-functional HR experience and sit in on meetings for different teams. The internship program was well-structured and offered weekly networking opportunities and professional development workshops. I had a leader and an advisor who supported me and helped me gain exposure to different areas of interest.

What I wish was different

I interned during the summer of 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic, so my program was virtual. If I could change anything it would be that the program was in-person; however, given the circumstances, I think NiSource made the safe and smart decision. The program was very well-organized and I still was able to learn so much!

Advice

Don't be afraid to speak up! Take advantage of your time at NiSource by familiarizing yourself with the company's culture, you will quickly learn how much your input and your questions are valued.
