Ready for Internship...Is my Internship Ready for Me?
One of the qualities you need to be ready for your internship is to be professional at all times. In the office, outside of the office, even on your breaks you will be evaluated. You should always be early, because being early is on time and being on time is late. You must develop the skills of being a good listener and a fast learner. Whenever you're being told a task or given information always take notes. This shows your boss you're taking what they say seriously and you won't find yourself asking repetitive questions. Always be willing to go the extra mile, you will be looked at as more of an employee instead of an intern. In Module 3 I will have to tighten up and always be aware of my surroundings. Meaning, I can never let my guards down and get too comfortable. I need to improve my grammar and the way I speak to my peers. I also need to watch how I perceive myself because I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea about me. My attitude has drastically changed, but I still need to watch my face expressions. My peers and I know I mean well but my body language may beg to differ. I will continue to use my planner because it has helped me tremendously to stay on top of things and prioritize my time. I feel by the end of Module 3 I will be more than ready. The real question is, is my internship ready for me?
