Great for students looking for Entrepreneur experiences. Very hands on. Got to organize and create the companies social media content. Was able to learn how to operate and manage the space and network with our members. My contributions made a large impact on the companies overall success. Also a company that is easily adaptable to post COVID world and I feel is making a real difference in the community.
What I wish was different
Due to COVID-19 some of my plans had to be postponed, but I was still able to accomplish a lot over the summer.
Advice
Make sure you are comfortable with having a sales pitch. We had a lot of people walk by and wanting to know more about Workvana, so knowing the sales pitch can help those people become members.

Project Manager
February 2020 • Elmhurst, IL
What I liked
It has been a great experience! You truly learn a lot and about all aspects of the business. I got to focus in areas I'm strong in like writing and research while learning about new areas like business development and marketing. I ended up being promoted from an intern to a project manager.
What I wish was different
Sometimes you will be working with a teammate on an assignment remotely and I wish it were easier to bring everyone together. However, we can still accomplish tasks remotely.
Advice
I would say you will learn how to take initiative. You will learn how to identify and prioritize tasks that need to be accomplished. You will really make an impact at this organization!
