Final Wee of Internship

My goals were to learn a lot of this internship and to be able to figure out what i want to be when i graduate from college. I did learn a lot from the internship, i learn how to fax and scan a lot paper to the computer and i learn how to file. I learn how to fill out immigration paper. I learned about different type of VISAS ( H1-B , J VISA) and work paper. I am still not sure what i want to be when i graduate from college, but i definitely won't work in the immigration. I learned to be responsible for my action, for EX: If i won't be able to make it to work then i need to call and tell them that ahead of time . My internship was very hard. i had to do a lot of work and i have to remember a lot of paper and forms and how to fill everything in and many more.

Where i work , people are dressed up really nice, they are very professional , they help you when you need help and they are very nice and funny.

I learned how to use the computer to do office work , also how to scan and fax any paper work. I LEARNED A LOT OF THINGS THAT ARE VERY IMPORTANT.

What kind of relationship do you have with your mentor and co-workers? How have you grown as a result of interacting with professional adults? What kinds of communication (verbal and non-verbal skills) have you gained?

I am able to talk o my mentor about almost everything. We talk about work related stuff and things tat happens in the world, like war and the swine flu .

What challenges at the internship have you faced that you have overcome?
I had a list of people's name and i had to find their paper work, the problem was that no one knew where their paper work was.
