Procurement Intern
May - August 2019 • North Kingstown, RI
What I liked
I love the people I worked with as well as the learning opportunity I was given. I was exposed to many aspects of business culture and office life, much of which I had little experience in.
What I wish was different
I wish I had paid more attention to the people I had worked with. I got to know my team really well, but I feel as though I could have reached out and talked with other departments more. This would have expanded my network and my knowledge each facet of the company
Advice
Do not be afraid to put yourself out of your comfort zone! I did not know anything about the plastic industry or corporate life. Because I was able to put myself out there, I was able to have a great experience!
