HAVI

Research and Insights Intern

May - August 2017 • Downers Grove, IL

What I liked

Everyone was really friendly and I had the opportunity to work with various departments. This gave me a broader learning experience and I was able to network with people of various backgrounds. The pay was comparable to other companies in the area and they offer a lunch stipend to eat in the cafeteria they have in the building.

What I wish was different

The company is a little old fashioned, which made it difficult to give input on process improvements. This seems to be something that they're trying to change in the company culture, and I hope that they're successful with that.

Advice

Be willing to take on different projects when asked even if you don't think you have the right knowledge base to assist. Internships are about learning so take up those opportunities when they come around.
