Environmental Education Outreach Intern

May - August 2018 • Joliet, IL

What I liked

I liked that the internship was the first experience I have had in my field.

What I wish was different

The only thing I wish had been different was the amount of hours we worked per week. On the application it said it would be around a 32 to 40 hour weeks for the internship, but we ended up working about 22 to 28 hours a week.

Advice

Do not take this internship lightly! It is a very professional atmosphere and definitely prepared me to be a more professional student with my work, as well as, other potential jobs and/or careers I will receive.
