I was able to quickly jump in and get involved in meaningful projects. I was given enough direction to succeed in a timely manner, but was otherwise relatively self directed in how I chose to approach problems.

Advice
Actively participating in daily standup and being open about where I was getting stuck helped so much. Sometimes the help I needed was being put in touch with the right person or being sent a link to documentation. Don't suffer in silence when you get stuck.

Internal Audit Intern
May 2018 • Provo, UT
What I liked
The experience, I learned a lot about how the company works. It was nice to be able to have such an extensive experience so close to home. My employers were very helpful, and they were patient with me.
What I wish was different
I wish that the pay had been a bit higher. $13/hour seemed low for the kind of work that I was doing, but I was still happy with the experience!
Advice
Use internships to network! The people that I have met at this job will help me get my full time job after school.
