I like the people I worked with and the community that ORB had. I learned a lot when I first got there about how research is conducted regarding international development.
What I wish was different
The latter parts of the internship became repetitive, and I felt like I wasn't being given any more responsibility despite being there for a year.
Advice
Make sure to ask for more work or questions about what you are doing. That is the best way to get the most of the experience.
