Summer Banking Intern

May - August 2018 • Denver, CO

What I liked

The opportunity to work on the group project and develop a strategy to improve customer involvement with certain banking services. I also enjoyed created the presentation materails and additional materials to support the project strategy.

What I wish was different

I wished I was not as bored with the job tasks. In addition, I wished I had sought other opportunities to explore my actual interests instead of letting myself feel like I was "stuck" with the pre-assigned tasks of the job.

Advice

Your internship experience really is what you make of it. I was not enjoying myself in the beginning and middle of my experience for various reasons, but I chose to have a positive outlook and use the project aspect of the internship as a way to turn my experience around. The work I put into the project paid off in the end and I had a fun time doing it!
