I liked how engaging the internship was despite being remote. In addition to completing my day-to-day responsibilities, I had the opportunity to network with other interns across different departments through coffee chats and attend employee speaker series.
What I wish was different
As much as I enjoyed the remote experience, I would have loved to complete my internship in person so that I can better interact with my supervisors and peers.
Advice
Any experience is what you make of it. While I was concerned about feeling disconnected through a remote internship, attending intern coffee chats and employee speaker series helped me form relationships with others.
