Technical Analyst
June - August 2019 • Jersey City, NJ
What I liked
Amazing program and people. I enjoyed meeting students with similar experiences and getting the opportunity to bond with them through social events. This internship was a pre-assessment to a fulltime job, so it was not competing against my peers but rather against myself. I had my own team, and two projects with employers who helped me along the way.
What I wish was different
I wish I was placed in NY. I wish my peers had a similar experience. Everyone had a different experience based on the team they were placed in.
Advice
Its worth a shot. It was a great change of pace from my current job and the classroom setting. It taught me different workflows and rules in the industry.

Global Information Security Analyst
June - August 2019 • Irving, TX
What I liked
I loved the people that Citi recruits! Had an amazing time collaborating with other interns and getting to know the company. The class size and housing assistance was my favorite part, it made the internship itself very enjoyable.
What I wish was different
Citi is a global company, so it is not a negative aspect whatsoever, but I would have appreciated being informed that my team would not be on campus. I was able to learn and collaborate in new ways(such as conference calls and video calls), which in the end helped develop my professional-interpersonal skills!
Advice
Make sure you ask questions about your role and reach out , not only to your manager(as most managers are busy!), but to also reach out to other team members and those around you!!

Data services intern
June - August 2019 • Getzville, NY

Advice
I advise anyone going into any field of work to network anyway they can. Go to the happy hours. Sign up for the community service events. Participate in the activities going on during the day. Shadow and ask tons of questions.
