“This internship was beneficial to me as a final semester senior with a “vague” degree in Communication. It was important, not only for the experiences themselves, but for the experience to spend time in an office that had short and long-term measureable goals and successes. It was a great time for me to start thinking about life, not in graded semesters, but in REAL WORLD outcomes.” (read more about my internship experience)

Getting that real world working experience is a great resume builder and employers look for that.” (read more about my internship experience)
