Throughout my time interning for Wayne County Economic Development Corporation I spent many of my opening hours in a office doing research, analyzing data, writing memos, creating the entire system of how the corporation organizes and shares information, along with sitting in on meetings ranging from development of parcels to legal matters. From the beginning my supervisor continuously stated that this is a learning process and that he had hired all three interns to instill and familiarize us to what world is like outside of school classrooms and the library. After a few weeks on getting to individually know each intern I was selected for a special work load that only I would be sanctioned to work on to see my potential, as I was informed. …show more content…
Before I was a junior at Michigan State University with only one prior internship at working as a legislative intern to working in the heart of Detroit underneath the some of the most influential people in the state of Michigan and a job that I solely there to help Michigan flourish back to what it used to be in the early 50’s. My internship entailed a lot of out three students two of which from MSU and the other from Wayne State. Its was a regular eight o’clock to four o’clock job, driving to work itself was an everyday objective from my established residency in Northern Oakland County roughly 40 miles each way. The three of us maintained our own quarters on the 28th floor of the Guardian Building in the financial district of Detroit where we could provide help to each other and work together to draft memos for the Mayor of Detroit Mike Duggan and CEO Warren C. Evans, business proposals for foreign counties to invest in Detroit and Wayne County, and creating a cloud based systems that each employee can import and export data from their current assignment with ease. Individually I was given the opportunity to set up and meet with all 43 communities within the borders of the county. Where the Executive Director of Corporate Affairs and myself would ask questions that focused primarily on business retention and future devolvement. Interviewing and traveling to each city on a daily basis turned out to be the easiest part of the process. Communication was the most
The process of finding an internship was very stressful for me. I honestly had no idea where to start or even what I was interested in. It took me many weeks to do research into different facilities that had internships available. After calling tons of organizations I finally interviewed at one that felt right for me. The interview took place with Laura Crain, who I also interviewed for this essay. The internship is at the McHenry County Substance Abuse Coalition.
So both the company and I were fairly new to the intern and company relationship. I think it worked out well the first person I met was the former vice president of operations Michael fink. I met mike at the career fair that was held in the lane university center. He told me they were looking for guys to do summer work and that they also had a mass communication internship opportunity. A few weeks later I met with vice president of development Gregory frank.
For my internship, I served under the Allegheny County Health Department in Pittsburgh, PA. I served as the National Health Corps Member for the Women, Infants, and Children Program as their Care Coordinator for all nine offices. Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) is a supplemental nutrition agency that targets pregnant and postpartum women and young children ages 5 and under who are at risk of malnutrition. My supervisor Annie Nagy along with my mentors in the office made sure I was able to receive all of the materials and resources I would need to have a complete and successful internship.
After speaking to people, I often had a time to reflect on what I heard. The product was a much greater understanding of the complexity of the American political system. I grew up thinking that that one side was right, and the other was full of irrational arguments. However, people sharing bits of their lives with me taught me that is not true. The support and opposition for every policy makes sense, and deciding which is right is far more of a value judgment than a facts-based judgment than I could have imagined. I feel less sure about what I believe politically after the internship, but again, I do not think that is a bad thing. For the first time, I know how to enter into a thought process without a bias, and able to listen to both sides. This skill is critical for any studies or career in the social sciences.
The summer of 2014, I interned at the Economic Development Office for the state of Texas. The office was tasked with preparing relocation incentives for companies in order to create jobs. The office was split into different departments totaling about 45 people.
I started my internship with the De Pere Area Chamber of Commerce in the first week of June. Beginning my internship I wasn’t sure what to expect. I had ideas about what I was going to be doing, but wasn’t sure. Whether the task was big or small I knew I wanted to contribute.
As reported by Shaul Magid, the most significant element of Judaism is that there is only one God, who wishes for the people to do what is right and just. The Jews believe that God made a covenant with Abraham, whom is considered the founder of the religion, in which God promised to praise Abraham and his followers, but only if they were to be committed and loyal to Him. This covenant makes Jews responsible for their wrongdoings and actions (par. 3-6). According to Paul Mendes-Flohr, Jews view themselves as chosen people held together by the covenant with God (423). Shaul Magid also reports that people of the Jewish faith also believe that God has yet to send a Messiah to save and rejoin the Jews with God. The Ten Commandments, which the Jews believe were given to Moses by God, outline how the Jews should go about living their lives (par. 3-6). As stated by Jason Levine, the Ten Commandments are:
The main task of my internship was to gain more experience and knowledge of our respective field. Overall, the experience proved to be both enjoyable and rewarding. During this internship I used the skills that I learned from my Medical Assistant class and used them in the real world scenarios at the hospital. Also while I there I was exposed to new experiences. Such as performing Urine test on Drug and alcohol patients. For this procedure I had to stand in the restroom with the patient's and watch them urinate into a cup. I had to stand in the restroom with the patients because in the past they try and cheat the system. For example
During this day I was able to observe on how to make a report for the arrest at the county jail and what information had to go on the report. There had to a summary what had happened, the information from the detainee, and the affidavit report that goes to the judge. During this day I was also able to see what the procedures that the jailers have to follow are. First they get all of your information and your finger prints, and then they search you for anything that is not allowed after they confiscate everything that you had and they put them in a vacuum sealed package that is place in a secure place after that they give the detainees there jail apparel and take their picture. During this internship I was able to experience how well this deputies were well trained for their job and how much experience they had which could help me understand what the life experience of a deputy is like which could help me make a decision in what agency I would like to work for in the
This week I began my 6-week internship at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Nebraska (BCBSNE). The first day was a common orientation for all new employees, internally denoted to as the “onboarding process” where all employees are told they matter. This full-day session communicates the core mission, vision and goals of BCBSNE, organizational structure, operating objectives, and workplace culture. BCBSNE is a not-for-profit health insurance company that is focused on collaboration to find the best solution for their customers; in other words, they are customer-focused. Since the implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), many changes to the health insurance market required a change in the organizational structure and culture of BCBSNE. Through partnerships with providers, the goals of BCBSNE are to be responsive, accountable, minimize errors, and decrease costs – all components of the ACA. BCBSNE has strategically aligned their goals to those of the government-mandated goals, and implemented them at all levels of the organization, making them competitive in the health insurance market. I found this very fascinating: I was very excited after day one!
Internship is a six to eight weeks working experience in any organization. The purpose behind doing an internship is to get familiar with a professional working environment. Often students do internships during there vacations so as to gain experience in their field of interest. Students studying engineering, computer science, textiles or business management; they are required to perform at least an internship so as to receive degree from their respective institutions. The purpose of writing this essay is to share my wonderful working experience as an internee at Spyglass Winery. I loved every minute of it as I discovered several new skills and came across with some interesting job opportunities. This statistical analysis (www.fasttrackinternships.com) shows the rate of full time job placements according to the number of internships completed.
Education is an important aspect of life no matter what age you are at and many seniors continue to want to learn as they get older. For older adults to be able to pursue education there are some obstacles that they may face, one of which is long walks from the parking spaces to the classroom and the cost of parking can deter them when even one class requires you to go to campus multiple times a week (Novak, 2012). A third reason is that they may have memories from when they were in school when they were younger (Novak, 2012). Not all older people go back to school to earn more money, some are focused on helping others with their education and not worried about the money (Novak, 2012). Throughout this paper I will look at some of the major theories of aging and how they coincide with education as an older person, staring with the life span development model.
This summer during May and June, I attended the internship at a company named Focus on Fur Animal Wellness and Massage, which is owned by a certified small animal massage practitioner. We both love animals such as dogs and cats and we both keep a dog at home. Our common points made us feel connected with each other that we had so many topics especially for dogs to talk about. In addition, the job contents were mostly related to dogs, which attracted me and made me want to explore more knowledge in this field. I was responsible for multiple tasks during this internship, since the company was a small start-up company that provided me the opportunity to handle almost everything that a company needs at the preliminary stage. Before my internship, I had no real direction of a particular position that I would like to pursue as my future career goal. I was trying to find an opportunity in which I could gain some working experience as well as put on my resume. Looking back now, an internship with various tasks helps me realize what I am willing to do and which aspect I am better with. On the other hand, contrary to the experience of completing an internship at a standard large firm, this internship allowed me to be more creative and bold to make decisions instead of doing some fixed tasks with strict rules. My supervisor had another full time job to take care with, so I worked from home individually, and would get in
Today was the first day of internship.

At the end of the day, all intern received a tour of office and met their own team members.
