What advice would you give a student who is in the process of applying to an internship?
Don’t be scared to dive in, internships are meant to be a learning experience so it will only be as productive to you, as you let it be. A few ways to get the most out of an internship in my opinion are to ask a lot of questions, take every opportunity you can to learn more about the job and other jobs, and enjoy the experience while it lasts.
