Forge (formerly HackCville)

Digital strategy intern

May - August 2018 • Charlottesville, VA

What I liked

I loved the immersive class experience that enabled me to work directly with clients and learn in a hands-on way.

What I wish was different

Getting paid 1250 for the entire summer was disappointing and I felt undervalued. Also, the organization where I was placed for my internship didn’t really need me for digital strategy so I had to do other work.

Advice

Get to know the other interns and actually take advantage of community events.
