Procurement Intern

June - August 2018 • Stratford, CT

What I liked

The team, the area, learning more about supply chain, everything! I loved learning more about the company and more about the program I was working on.

What I wish was different

I wish I had a heavier work load at times, but with how little training I had it wasn't very possible.

Advice

I was open minded going into a state I had never been before not knowing anyone and it ended up being one of the best summers I could've asked for, so remember to always be open minded!

Advice

I would encourage other to get out of their comfort zones and go new places even if it means not knowing anyone in the new area.

College Student Technical Specialist

Very organized and structured work environment. Work and responsibilities were very flexible.

Company structure of the internship too rigid. Wish that internship presentation or ratings by unaffiliated employees outside of my work team were unnecessary and distracting.

Advice

Keep an open mind. Take whatever work you are given even if it's outside your expectations or realm of expertise/education

enterprise operations intern

May - August 2019 • King of Prussia, PA

What I liked

I told my manager I was interested in project management and he basically had me shadow a project with a really strong PM. It helped me realize the in depth questions that PM’s have to answer to help plan. I also helped them with other management aspects, made presentations, and helped the team integrate new tools.

What I wish was different

It was slow at times. I probably should have asked for work, but I thought they would just give it to me. It was an office setting, so I was sitting at a desk for 9 hours a day (yes 9, they have a different scheduling system, which I liked actually).

Advice

People always say “ask questions, we’re here to help”. It can be hard to come up with questions but at the least, ask them how they got where they are today. It can help you find your path, or at least ease your mind that paths aren’t always direct, they curve. On another note, I’d say to take advantage of the benefits and find out as much as you can about tuition reimbursement, leadership programs, and other things that could benefit you for the future.

Global Supply Chain Intern

June - August 2020 • Grand Prairie, TX

What I liked

I loved the culture and core values of the company as they align with mine.

What I wish was different

Since it was during the pandemic, my internship was done remotely and didn't have the chance to meet anyone at the facilities or witness how everything was done physically. I feel that being done remotely deterred me from making connections with management that could help me become a full-time worker at the company upon graduation.

Lots of keynote speakers and presentations about how to build a career and grow at the company.

Enterprise Operations Supply Chain Management Intern

May - August 2019 • Fort Worth, TX

What I liked

I loved how hands on the experience was, as well as the workplace culture. The workplace culture promoted a sense of importance, as well as community. This was the perfect ‘first internship experience’ as I learned the ins and outs of being in a professional environment.

What I wish was different

The only semi-negative going into the internship was the very vague job description.

Advice

Be confident from day one. Ask people their names when they you you shake their hand.
