Koch

Business Systems Analyst

May - August 2019 • Wichita, KS

What I liked

I loved the companies focus on me reaching my highest potential. Koch Industries is a very foward thinking company and is actively investing in the future. They seek to create virtuous cycles of mutual benefit with preferred partners. I learned a lot during such a short amount of time because of the numerous opportunities that pushed me to learn and grow. The internship is a phenomenoal program that speaks volumns about Koch Industries.

What I wish was different

The opportunity to explore different types of work and position over the course of the summer.

Advice

Work hard, ask questions good questions and be happy.

Plant Engineer Intern

May - August 2018 • Shell Rock, IA

What I liked

I liked how Interesting the whole process was. I worked at an ethanol plant and the entire process fascinated me.

What I wish was different

I wish I had more guidance from mentors and coworkers. I was not given a lot of direction.

Advice

Part of the reason I took this job was because it was away from home. I wanted to see if I'd like that. (I didn't.) It's just as important to find out what kind of career you're NOT interested in as it is to find out what you ARE interested in. This includes job responsibilities, location, work culture, and more.
