Product Management Intern

June - August 2019 • Bradenton, FL

What I liked

I loved this internships for many different reasons. The main reason being the really awesome projects I got to work and incredible amount I learned from them. I had so many amazing people there to support me and push me to become successful and I can't thank them enough for helping me grow this past summer. An example of a project I worked on was analyzing a licensing and royalty agreement, and then recommending a future financial decision to leadership based on my evaluation. This experience challenged me and I learned an amazing amount from it, and I will keep the experience with me for my future career!

What I wish was different

I do not wish anything had been different, it was truly a remarkable experience and I was blessed to have the opportunity to work for a great company with incredible people around me!

Advice

One piece of advice I would share about this experience is try your hardest to be the biggest sponge you possibly can be. Soak in as much knowledge as you possibly can and jump on any opportunities that come up. Ask for help when you need it because there are awesome people around you that would love to help you! Have fun, work hard, and learn as much as you can!

Mechanical Engineering Intern

May - August 2019 • El Segundo, CA

What I liked

LA is a fun city, although El Segundo is pretty south of the city.

What I wish was different

I wish interns had legitimate work to do. I wasn't give any real projects and my manager was not helpful. Most interns aren't given any security clearance, so 80% of the projects are immediately inaccessible.

Advice

Don't intern here if you're ambitious and want to be challenged. It's a better place for job security and slow comfortable living.

Project Engineer Intern

June - November 2018 • Phoenix, AZ

What I liked

It was a good first time intern position and the company has positions offered for any type of student; the student's major does not have to be engineering or business.

What I wish was different

I wish I had more to work and meaningful work to do. The work I was doing was also unrelated to my major because I am majoring in robotics engineering.

Advice

Take advantage of the experience because you never know when it might end. There are plenty of opportunities to jump on, all it takes is for you to notice them and act on them.

Electrical Engineering co-op

January - August 2019 • Tewksbury, MA

What I liked

• Having the opportunity to work with senior engineers and learn from their experience. • Having a Friday off every other week by doing 9/80 schedule.

What I wish was different

N/A

Advice

I would say that doing a co-op job during the school years is a great opportunity for all students to learn more and faster about their filed. In addition, co-op job gives a new way to learn things that not easy to learn in school such as working in a team of more than ten people from different departments. Moreover, by working hard and showing the company the ability of learning new things, students might have a big chance of working with that company in the future, which is one of the huge benefits of doing a co-op job.

Delivery Assurance

May - August 2019 • East Hartford, CT

What I liked

A few of the things I liked about working at UTC was the people I worked with. The community in the office I worked in was very inviting and welcoming. Another thing I enjoyed was the work I was doing. It was very interesting to see the process of getting a part of an engine that is undergoing maintenance.

What I wish was different

I wish that the company was a little more organized when it came to getting the technology needed to complete my work. It took me almost my whole internship to get a monitor that I ordered on my first day of work.

Advice

Get to know everyone on the office floor. They may be able to help down the road with future problems and establishing a relationship early will help.

Internships are important. I didn't get an internship with my first bachelor's degree and it only hurt me while looking for a full time job after college.

Systems Engineering Intern

May - July 2019 • Marlborough, MA

What I liked

I loved the work atmosphere and schedule. Everyone I worked with was very accommodating, helpful and supportive throughout my time there. I felt valued, and the work I did was interesting and taught me a lot. The company also had special tours and events for interns that were nice to participate in.

What I wish was different

Communication before the internship was infrequent and a little vague, making sorting out some details a little difficult. No housing is provided and I wasn't very happy with the rooming situation I found but the rest of the experience was good.

Advice

There was a lot I had to figure out and learn on my own throughout the internship so be prepared to put in extra time when needed to figure out things and don't be afraid to ask for help.
