Undergraduate Global Procurement Intern

May - August 2018 • Portland, OR

What I liked

I loved being able to step out of my comfort zone and challenge myself and what I thought I could do. Procurement is usually for people who have strong analytical and quantitive skills which I don't necessarily get in my major, but everyone was supportive.

What I wish was different

I wish I had taken charge more in my internship and make the most of it because I was given an opportunity to be independent.

Advice

I would tell anyone who is looking to intern at Nike that it is a lot of handwork but it is worth the experience. This is truly an internship where they give you practical projects and a chance to leave a mark on the company.

One campus plan intern

May - August 2018 • Beaverton, OR

What I liked

I loved working at the World Headquarters of one of my favorite companies. I was able to meet some of my favorite athletes and talk with workers from all around the world. There was always something going on.

What I wish was different

I wish I would have looked into housing more before going there because I had to go through the corporate option and it was nice but expensive.

Advice

I met at least one new person everyday and challenged myself to get into work early and stay later a few times a week to maximize my short time there. Nike loves driven individuals and anything you can do to stand out will be recognized.

What I liked

My coworkers were amazing. I never knew I would meet some of my most favorite people at work. I am truly so grateful I was hired at the Nike factory Outlet store.

Talk to people. Communication will get you so far. It helps you learn and progress.

Global Technolgy intern

May - August 2019 • Portland, OR

What I liked

The culture was really cool! Very into teaching/learning about programming.

What I wish was different

There was a HUGE focus on networking. To the point that t was hard to focus on my summer project.

Advice

This position and company favors extroverts. At the end, you give a presentation on your summer project and your return offer is heavily based on that presentation.

HR Talent Acquisition Intern

May - August 2018 • Beaverton, OR

What I liked

Nike does an amazing job hosting interns over the summer. Not only did we get a first class business experience with the most amazing company, but we also got to go on adventures and trips as a whole intern class. I met so many new people and strengthened my professional skills immensely. This was a life changing experience and I will always be grateful for my time at Nike. #swooshlife

What I wish was different

Since Nike is such a big company with so many different departments, interns are not always guaranteed a return offer. Most of the interns have to network their way back into the company which can get challenging at times.

Advice

One piece of advice I would share about interning with Nike is always embrace the ambiguity. Nike is a large company and has a lot happening, so as an intern you have to be comfortable with owning your work and rolling with your ideas. One other thing I would say is to participate in every opportunity they offer, whether it be a speaker series, the white water rafting trip, or even volunteering for an event.
