| Not too bad, there were a few awkward moments but that's all part of the learning experience. The beginning was rough but towards the end I was doing a lot of interesting work. |

How was your Very First Internship?
Woah... it's been a busy semester
[another project] I've been writing a really big paper about why students, whose first-time experience with an internship/co-op at a company related to their area of study (mostly engineering), may have an awkward or unpleasant recollection of their first co-op/intern placement. Through my experience, I attribute this to that many hiring managers may not know that first-year interns/co-ops need to be managed a little differently. I'm focusing on the pre-planning & communication aspects of hiring a student for a part-time placement. The paper is a recommendation to hiring mangers: "A Hiring Manager’s Guide Toward the Planning & Utilization of a First-Year NU-MIE Co-op Student." I would really appreciate it if you would answer the poll (honestly) so I may use this statistic in my report. Thanks! erin |
