This semester, I got a chance to intern at a medical school’s office of communications and external relations. I work with the web development department and right now they are working on migrating content from their old website to their new website.
My days usually go something like this:
Wake up at 8am
Figure out an outfit for the office
Walk to work
Grab a Caramel Frappuccino from Starbucks
Tap into the building
Put my coat away and log into my special interns computer at my desk
Get working on a project
Sit in on a meeting or two
Leave to get lunch at Simmons (because using my meal plan is better than using cash)
Come back and eat at my desk while continuing the project
Check in with my boss before I head out
Walk to Simmons to continue my day by going to classes
Repeat for 3 days in a row
I know it seems busy AF, but honestly after two weeks of this job, I can say I truly love my internship. Everyone in the office is so kind and helpful and it’s such an amazing opportunity. It’s internships like this that make me excited to start in the workforce.
