“I learned so much, and that prepared me for my next chapter in my career.”
Program Year: 2012
What specific skills or experiences from your internship do you still use today?
More social than technical skills; I learned to be patient, tolerant and understanding to other cultures.
How did living abroad and being immersed in a new culture impact you personally or professionally?
It was my first experience away from my family, learning to be independent after university was new to me. To be disciplined, learning what my true values were after being independent, was life changing.
Looking back, what do you see as the biggest way Connect-123 shaped your career or life?
Connections with amazing successful people, and experiences with friends I will never forget.
What advice would you give to students currently considering or starting an internship abroad?
It is truly valuable to travel, meet people from different cultures and understand how to be independent after university. I learned so much, and that prepared me for my next chapter in my career.
