Apex Fintech Solutions

Information Security Intern

June - December 2019 • Dallas, TX

What I liked

Great leadership from the top-down. Innovation was endless on all teams that I had an interaction with. All leaders are supportive of personal growth. Teammates from every team are always eager to mentor newer employees. Projects that I worked on were of real value to my team.

What I wish was different

I wouldn't have changed my experience in any way.

Advice

Find a company that really cares about its employees. Find or request a mentor starting day one. Don't be afraid to stretch your comfort zone and learn something new.

Software Engineering Intern

June - August 2019 • Portland, OR

What I liked

Through this internship I got a good picture of what it's like to be a software engineer in the industry. I was given a well thought out project for the summer and plenty of resources to complete it. Apex has a very fun work environment and I had a wonderful summer there.

What I wish was different

It would have been nice to get to see more of what else goes on at Apex, but I still found great value in an in-depth experience of just one roll.

Advice

As an intern nobody is expecting you to make huge advances for the company, so relax and treat it like a learning experience. Ask not what you can do for your internship, ask what your internship can do for you. Also, spending your lunch socializing with coworkers is a great way to grow your network and to learn lots of new things from people who have a lot of experience in the field.
