The president of the firm, Tom, was a wonderful person all throughout my internship experience. Working at Integra felt extremely personal as I worked closely with Tom and got a thorough understanding of the business structure. You learn numerous valuable skills while on the job and it gives you an insight on how it is to work in a real world setting. Your ideas are welcome and considered. I truly appreciated this experience.
What I wish was different
I wish we had more help. It was great to be immersed in a real world working experience; however, when unforeseen circumstances arose. we were often left short handed. It does however force you to improve your competency to get things done faster.
Advice
You will learn numerous valuable skills and it's up to you to pay attention to detail and use extensive problem solving skills. Ask questions and combine what you learn/learned in the classroom with the knowledge you receive from the internship. Tom treats you like family and is one of the most professional individuals I've ever seen in the field. There's a reason he's been in business for multiple decades.
