    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the virtual experience and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • With the internship being held virtually, no experience was lost since much of the company already works in this way. Working 9-5 on a project I really cared about with experts in the field really helped me develop my skills throughout the internship. I can leave the internship knowing I have accomplished a lot within the company, but also taking away skills for life. There were also many sessions held to show other aspects of the company.
