- I think the best skills I had coming in to this internship are my ability to type pretty fast and being able to speak up/speak publicly. I know that if I didn't have these things almost built into me that even the first week would've been extremely hard. I think High Tech is the main reason for my ability to speak up and really appreciate all the opportunities that I've gotten just by putting myself out there. Typing is something that I've always wanted to perfect because my dad said it would be a very important skill to have once I was older, and he was right. I took some keyboarding classes at my middle school that taught me the basics and ever since then I've been able to get faster and faster.
- The biggest skill that I've developed while being at my internship doesn't really have a name, it's the way that I work/receive work. We were often just asked to do things that were completely different than what we were working on before, but both, Itzel and I, completed everything that was assigned to us. Another huge skill is time management, I knew that this skill would grow because of the fact that I would have more freedom compared to what we get at school. At the beginning I wasn't expecting this amount of freedom while being here and then realized that I would have to be that one to keep up on my hours/schedule and lunch, everything was up to me. I think this gave me a huge heads up on college and I know that it'll be even more freedom to juggle but at least I'll have this small taste before actually taking on college.
- Being an intern has taught me so many things, not all things that I could have learned in a classroom. I think that this is probably one of the best opportunities/experiences I have ever gotten. I really appreciate that High Tech makes this a requirement because I've heard many stories of people not liking their actual workplace after going through the money and school process. Without this experience I wouldn't know what my city is working on, what it's like to be a city attorney, or all the people that it takes to run an office. I think this is really going to help shape my future by helping me choose a career, I look forward to doing other internships soon as well.
