How the following skills helped me land Co-op, exceed managerial expectations, and enhance contribution through better alignment of my skills and expertise. In the dynamic world of internships, success lies not only in completing tasks but in the ability to read between the lines of managerial expectations. Managers desire interns who go beyond the surface, anticipating needs and proactively engaging with the work. Aspects such as: Art of Questioning: Managers value interns who don't just wait for information but actively seek it out. Your doubts should be a few steps ahead of what's currently explained. This involves honing the art of questioning – asking not just for clarity but exploring the deeper intricacies of the tasks at hand. Striking a Balance: While managers expect you to seek guidance, they also appreciate self-sufficiency. It's about finding the right balance; ask questions when needed, but show independence in tackling challenges. This ability to navigate between seeking guidance and taking initiative is what sets exceptional interns apart. Building Expertise: One key aspect is building a solid foundation in your area of expertise. This not only demonstrates commitment but also enables you to grasp concepts swiftly, allowing you to ask more nuanced and informed questions. These skills not only helped me land an internship at Plug Power but also to contribute meaningfully. With this, I am delighted to announce the commencement of my internship at JBT Corporation's Automated Systems Division in Kingston, NY, where I am serving as a Manufacturing Co-Op. This facility is distinguished for its expertise in manufacturing high-end Automated Guided Vehicles, utilized across various industries. I extend my sincere gratitude to Stephen Munisteri and Robert Streck for entrusting me with this valuable opportunity. Additionally, I would like to express my appreciation to Sasha Gunter and Lori Minott for their invaluable support during my interview and onboarding process. As I embark on this journey, I am eager to contribute my skills and experiences to augment the exceptional work undertaken at JBT Corporation. Here's to a productive and impactful year ahead, marked by significant contributions to the team and the organization.
