Product Portfolio Management Intern

June - August 2019 • Bellevue, WA

What I liked

Throughout my internship, I was assigned one project, with the chance to share my project at a trade show with the 100 other interns at the end of the Summer. We also had plenty of networking and social activities with our intern cohort, and it was really cool getting to know other interns from around the country!

What I wish was different

I wish there was a bit more transparency about return offers - this was not addressed until closer to the end of the internship.

Advice

Reach out and schedule as many informational interviews as you can with people from the teams you are interested in, because everyone is very friendly and willing to meet!

Software Design Engineer Intern

June 2019 • Bellevue, WA

What I liked

I liked how the culture was laid back and the people were kind. There were great events too for interns through the weeks, and I was able to make some good friends at work. I found that what I was working on actually had purpose and would contribute to the company which felt rewarding.

What I wish was different

I would have liked to see a little bit more teaching and instruction. I have been left to my own devices for a lot of the summer, and didn't have much structure. I suppose that is more like how the real world is though.

Advice

I would highly recommend the SPU mentor program in helping with networking and finding internships. That helped me tremendously after applying for many on my own first to no avail.
