My Internship gave me hands-on experience that helped bridge the gap between what I learned in college and how things operate in the real world. I gained a better understanding of workplace expectations, how to manage deadlines, and how to collaborate with a professional team.
Interning at Intrepid provided me with more confidence in my skill sets and helped me learn what I want to do for a career. I work with great people, and I’m pleased to grow my career now in even more directions.
SPA’s intern program has helped me grow personally and professionally, and the environment is so welcoming.
I've grown a lot in my confidence since SPA's intern program. It's a great learning experience with a lot of help available.
SPA has helped support me throughout my educational career by giving me a lot of work-life balance as well as flexibility.
