My internship experience went above and beyond anything that I expected. I worked for a very successful non-profit dealing with HIV/AIDS. I definitely felt needed in the office where I was lucky enough to be given the opportunity to actually participate and work on big projects. I left feeling accomplished and learned in a whole new area. I gained experience in marketing, sales, organizational skills, research and development, and the overall governance of a successful non-profit. It was all that I was looking for in a summer internship, and to complete the picture I made wonderful friends within the office who made me feel a part of the team. Connect-123 made sure I got the internship of my dreams. I explained to them exactly what I was looking for and we worked together to find a successful one. My first few weeks in Cape Town, they called in and made sure I was happy with the work I was doing. They are there to provide you the opportunity to experience a job of your dreams. This was the best summer of my life, thanks Connect-123!
