Throughout the summer, I was exposed to multiple areas of the business through cross-functional projects. I audited account plans for the sales teams, analyzed and built reports from survey responses, and program managed the action plans for my team\u2019s satisfaction report. Through this experience I gained skills in communication, Excel, and knowledge on sales and business.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Give us an example of how you have applied your academic learnings to your internship?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I applied my academic learnings to my internship by utilizing the critical thinking and quick learning skills that are ingrained in the Liberal Arts education we receive at Holy Cross.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. What has surprised you about being an intern?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I was surprised at how much the company wanted to help me learn and grow. Dell really invested the companies time and resources into the internship program and offered multiple opportunities to learn new things. They also willingly allowed us to network with multiple teams to enable our understanding of different organizations.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. How did this experience influence or connect to your future career plans \/ goals?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;font-family: Times\"> My experience allowed me to land a full-time job at Dell after college. I will be in the Business Operations and Finance Rotational Program this August.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;font-family: Times\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Any internship advice to pass on to other Holy Cross students?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;font-family: Times\">Network and be yourself. I was offered my internship by an Alumni (Katie Bobinski\u00a0\u201915), whom I met at the Women and Business Conference my Sophomore year. From that connection, we stayed in contact after the Marketing, Communications and Sales program during Spring break last year. I believe it was through this connection that I landed my job at Dell and I encourage all students to network with alumni through HC Network. Also, your personality speaks louder than your GPA. So, connect and be present during those interactions and good things will come your way!
