What has been the most challenging moment in your internship experience?
My most challenging experience has been networking. The people we meet on a daily basis are constantly meeting other people, so making an impression in minutes matters. Networking is part of the lifestyle, which is something I’m still getting used to. It’s challenging because you always have to be prepared for anything wherever you are. Although I say it’s challenging, it is also a lot of fun because I never know the kind of people I am going to meet or what you’re going to have in common. With meeting all these new people, I also learn something new everyday, which is very exciting. For instance, meeting people from different organizations has educated me about different opportunities that are available in DC. It is the halfway mark of the program, and we have already experienced so much and there is still more ahead of us.
