AT&T

Strategic Alliances Intern

June - August 2018 • Dallas, TX

What I liked

My co-worker's were incredibly helpful and welcoming. They so kindly threw me a birthday party and a going away party. I felt valued and an important member of the team! More than that, I was also challenged and pushed to new heights being given the opportunity to work on a new product's go to market plan. This experience was transformational and grew my capabilities as a team member, a leader, and a innovator.

What I wish was different

Maybe not having to take the bus everyday, but I wouldn't change much about the actual internship experience

Advice

Ask lots of questions, all the time. You can gain so much experience and so many opportunities simply in being bold enough to ask questions.

Engineeing and Operations Intern

May - August 2018 • Austin, TX

What I liked

I enjoyed learning more about and being exposed to how corporate companies internally work. Working with industry professionals on a real, impactful project was very rewarding.

What I wish was different

I wish I worked in a team environment in more of a software engineering role than an operations role. I felt overqualified for some of the work I was doing. I worked with Excel and VBA mostly.

Advice

Don't be afraid to be bold in networking with other people. Try to connect with people 20 years older than you because you can learn a lot from them. Don't just go with the flow and do work, actively seek work and give it your best, otherwise you will not get much out of this internship. Be sure to set difficult goals for yourself for the internship.

Software Engineer Intern

June - August 2018 • Middletown Township, NJ

What I liked

Learned a wide variety of technologies not normally taught in my school. The hours were flexible; I was able to bend the hours to fit my schedule, as long as I worked 40 hours a week and was able to attend intern events. Several intern events throughout the summer. Pay was really good among the other companies in the area. I got a total of 3 vacation days off.

What I wish was different

Advice

I was in the technology development program. The experience really depends on your team. Management will help you but I know some interns did not have a lot of work to do. Be active and ask your mentors questions if you get stuck so you can continue development and get work done.

I had a wonderful experience working at AT&T. The team I worked on was extremely friendly and very fun to work with.

What I wish was different

I honestly wouldn't have changed anything in particular about my experience as anintern with AT&T.

The benefits the company provided, community with other interns, and the city.
