Making the most of internships
Throughout my prior internships, I have done many different jobs and had many different roles. But there is one thing I have found that helps exceed at all of them. This would be to get involved and challenge yourself. This has been the most beneficial teaching and learning experience. While it does take a boss and coworkers who are willing to let you try, I highly recommend finding a way to be able to do it. In the past, I can remember internships where I was just told what to do every day, and I never got anything out of it. However, my most recent one with Bayer Crop Science allowed me to excel. It allowed me to lead and experiment with my ideas be the first to try. And if I did not succeed, then I had support to fall back on. Getting involved and making the plans rather than just following them significantly helped me learn.
