The staff were all really welcoming and open to any questions I had. I also had the opportunity to see a ton of the different aspects of the Organization.
What I wish was different
I wish it had been a little bit of a bigger office, where I was there were only three people on staff and three interns.
Advice
Go in knowing what you're interested and what areas you want to learn more about. Also being comfortable with excel is very helpful.

Never say no to an opportunity presented to you. If your job asks you to step up, step up. You will be surprised what you can handle and employers are more likely to recommend you when you take on those challenges
