My internship has helped to enforce my career plans. I want to go into information technology management and I believe that this internship has helped me to learn more about what that may entail. I have also learned that working with your client is so so so important and making sure they are happy is my top priority. I believe that this is a career that I would really enjoy and be good at, so I am glad that this internship provided the opportunity to learn this about myself.

How is the internship meeting or not meeting your expectations/objectives and why? This internship was not something I had envisioned for myself. Due to my busy schedule this summer, I was unable to obtain an internship like some of my peers. This was difficult for me to come to terms with because I wanted something that would look really good on applications, such as SAS or Town of Cary. I soon realized that my internship still had a lot of value, even if I didn't feel like it did. I learned a lot about holding myself accountable and going off and doing work on my own. I may not have had the title I wanted, but I learned a lot of ethical skills that I will be able to put to use as a further my career.

My classroom experiences helped me SO much for my internship. The classes that I felt were the most important were Multimedia and Webpage Design as well as E-Commerce. Multimedia and Webpage Design This class (MAWD) taught me what was pleasing to the eye of the public. It allowed me to learn how to mix graphics and colors to discover what worked best for different types of target markets.

E-Commerce Although I did not use the HTML that I learned in this class, I put a lot of other skills that I learned to use. During ecom, I got a lot of practice applying the skills I learned from MAWD. The aesthetic skills were put to use in ecom when we learned how to make websites. Having this experience mad...

Overall, my internship was an okay experience. I didn't love it, but I didn't hate it either. I feel this way because it was not a true internship. As a high schooler, it is hard to find something that will pay, last long enough, and fits the technology guidelines. If you're not at SAS, Town of Cary, or Lenovo, it doesn't seem like you're doing anything in comparison to what they are doing. I think this would've been a better experience for me if I could make a summer long commitment to a real business. Unfortunately, I was not able to do that. I think it would be beneficial to find some options that are more flexible so students like myself so we can get a true internship experience.
