I love that the new Nike CEO Elliott Hill joined the company as an intern and spent his entire career at the company. How many #Fortune1000 companies can say the same thing? At Datonics we take pride in our internship program and are proud of current team members who started as interns, including: Donna Fintzi (Grinnell College ) , Kaseem Jagat (Futures and Options ) , Rachelle Benedict (Columbia University ), Yana Grigoryeva. We are also proud of our low turnover rate in team members and that people have been with us for over 5/10/20 years- but that is the subject for another post. #intern #internship #recruitment #hr #humanresources

While engaging with a shop owner, I was taken aback by their behaviour towards our team. In an unexpected turn, the shop owner resorted to derogatory language, referring to us as "slaves" and displaying loud and confrontational behaviour. 🌟 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗺 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆 🌟 Encountering such behaviour was undoubtedly jarring, yet it served as a reminder of the importance of professionalism in all situations. Despite the challenging circumstances, our team maintained composure and professionalism throughout the interaction. We remained focused on our objectives and approached the situation with empathy and understanding, recognizing that everyone faces their battles and stresses. 💡 𝗟𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘄𝘁𝗵 𝗢𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀💡 While the encounter was unexpected and uncomfortable, it presented valuable lessons and growth opportunities. It reinforced the significance of effective communication, conflict resolution, and maintaining a positive attitude in the face of adversity. Additionally, it highlighted the importance of empathy and understanding in navigating challenging interactions, as we never truly know what someone else may be going through. 🚀 𝗠𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗚𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗲 🚀 As we continue our journey through the Summer Internship Program, this experience serves as a poignant reminder of the resilience and grace required to navigate the professional world. It underscores the importance of upholding values of respect, integrity, and professionalism in all our interactions, regardless of the challenges we may encounter. 🌱 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝘂𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 🌱 I invite fellow interns and professionals alike to share their experiences and insights on navigating challenging situations in the workplace. Let's continue to learn and grow together, supporting one another as we strive for excellence in our respective fields. #Professionalism #Resilience #Growth #InternshipExperience #WorkplaceChallenges

Last week, we welcomed this year's summer co-ops and interns to the Cineplex team! 🎉 Transitioning into the professional world can be both exciting and overwhelming. Whether you're diving into your first job or aiming to maximize your experience, remember that every day is an opportunity to learn, grow, and make an impact. Here are my top 10 tips to to help you navigate your internship/co-op and make the most out of your summer position: 💼✨ 1. Show Initiative: Don't wait for instructions, seek out opportunities, and contribute ideas that add value to projects. 2. Stay Organized: Keep track of deadlines, meetings, and tasks to ensure you stay on top of your responsibilities. 3. Outline Your Goals: Set clear goals for what you want to achieve during your internship/co-op. Whether it's gaining specific skills or completing projects, having goals keeps you focused and motivated. 4. Be Professional: Represent the company with integrity. Dress appropriately, adhere to company policies, respect and address colleagues professionally. 5. Be Punctual: Time is valuable in the workplace, so always arrive on time for meetings, assignments, and deadlines. 6. Ask for Help: Don't hesitate to ask questions or seek guidance when you need it. Asking for help shows that you're proactive and committed to doing your best work. 7. Make Yourself Available and Be Hungry to Learn: Be open to new experiences and opportunities for growth. Volunteer for tasks outside your comfort zone and take advantage of learning opportunities. 8. Ask for Feedback: Solicit feedback from your supervisors and colleagues to identify areas for improvement and demonstrate your willingness to learn and grow. 9. Keep Track of Your Projects: Maintain a record of your projects, accomplishments, and challenges you've overcome. This documentation can be valuable for future reference and performance evaluations. 10. Make Connections: Build relationships with your colleagues, supervisors, and other professionals in your field. Networking can open doors to future opportunities and mentorship.
