Intern

June - August 2019 • Overland Park, KS

What I liked

The people are super friendly. The interns are expected to bounce between all positions to learn the inside and out of the company and everywhere I went the workers were super nice. Also, there were always people from corporate coming in to see how certain departments are run and they are welcome to discussion and questions.
