Retail Lending Services Operations Intern

May - August 2023 • Pittsburgh, PA

What I liked

What I wish was different

Advice

Don't be scared to ask questions or try something new. Joining the corporate world or just starting any new position in general can be really scary at first, but it is extremely beneficial to ask questions and make connections with people in your team. The only way you will learn new things is by stepping out of your comfort zone, asking to try new things, and/ or take the lead on projects.
