Today, Career Services would like to feature one of our rockstar interns, Ayomide Israel Akinbo. This summer, Ayo is interning at The Resource Center. Check out his story below:
"As a young professional, I've found that taking internships early in my career has been crucial to my growth. Through these experiences, I've been able to apply what I learned in school to real-world situations, gaining invaluable hands-on experience in my field.
Internships have given me insights into different roles and company cultures, helping me refine my career goals. I've developed essential skills, built my professional network, and gained confidence in my abilities. These opportunities have taught me how to navigate workplace challenges and have significantly enhanced my resume.
My internship has often led to job offers or strong references. They've allowed me to explore different career paths before committing to a full-time position. I've also honed important soft skills like communication, teamwork, and time management.
By investing in internships early on, I've gained a competitive edge in the job market and laid a solid foundation for my long-term career growth. The experience I've gained is truly irreplaceable."
