Software Developer Intern
June - August 2018 • Philadelphia, PA
What I liked
I loved how much freedom I got in the workplace! I was allowed to choose and create my own project and had a lot of guidance along the way from the really friendly team members. I also got to participate in projects that weren't my own and got a really good idea of what software is like.
What I wish was different
I wish there were a more formalized internship program (which I think they're implementing next year), since I felt like I was on my own for a lot of the time.
Advice
Take initiative!
