12 Best Intern tips

This blog I’ll go over on 12 intern tips that will help me at my internship. I ranked them from 1-12 one being the best even though all of them are good.

1.      Find a Mentor- The reason I chose this first is because when having a mentor they will teach

you everything you need to know. Also they can introduce you to people in the job. At my intern I would apply this by trying to be in contact with a coworker and just he/she questions about the company.  

2.      Set personal goals-Having your own goals on the job is something I think is really great because I think it keeps you productive and you can always come up with new goals daily. I would apply this by having a lot of little goals each day at the job and try to accomplish it. 

3.      Tackle all tasks with enthusiasm and a positive attitude-This one is really good because whenever someone shows a positive attitude at work. People see that and sometimes evens get other workers around to be in a good mood. I will apply this by not having anything negative affect me during work and just try to worry about my personal problems after work.

4.      Have regular meetings with your supervisor-As an intern having regular meetings with your supervisor is really good because you get to ask questions and ask how your performance is going at work. I will apply this by asking my manager during the meet and greet if I can schedule a meeting at least once a week.

5.      Avoid Negativity-Doing this is really going to help at work because you won’t get stressed as much when someone is being negative at work it’s better to just avoid it. I will apply this by whenever seeing negative attitudes at work to just avoid it and focus on my work.

6.      Never shun a chance to learn more about the Company/Industry-Getting chances to learn about the company shows to your manager/supervisor that you’re really interested in the company and is willing to find out more. I will apply this by whenever getting an opportunity to be at an event about the company to accept the offer and go to the event.

7.      Get as much exposure as possible- Trying to learn more about each department is really helpful because you get  an insight in how each department works and shows you’re really interested. I will apply this by whenever having downtime I will ask to get more exposure in each department at work.

8.      Enjoy yourself-Having a good time while you’re working is a good idea because you won’t be bored at work and you have to love what you do at the job. I will apply this by just being in a positive attitude at work even if im not feeling good.

9.      Don’t be afraid to ask questions- When asking questions I think at first someone should try and solve it on their own and after a while if they can’t just ask the question. I’ll apply this by whenever there’s a situation I cant solve I’ll ask the manager a question or a coworker.

10.  Network, Network, Network- I think networking with co-workers is really important because people will see you as someone who could really talk to. I’ll apply this by trying to get to know every coworker in my department as much as possible.

11.  Take Initiative-This is good at your intern because it shows your dependable and also that your willing to take on a challenge. I’m going to do this by having whenever the manager ask for something to be done I’ll take up on the offer and get it done.

12.  Leave with tangible accomplishments- Leaving with accomplishments is really good because the next you would go to work it makes somebody feel great. Applying this by trying to complete my goals and leaving good with my goals accomplished.
