Compliance Inspector Intern

October 2018 • Sarasota, FL

What I liked

I loved every aspect of the internship. Whether I was traveling in the field through dense wetlands or I was at the office working alongside my coworkers, who felt like family to me, I loved every day I worked.

What I wish was different

One thing I wish was different was more hours to work, instead of a 25 hour limit per week.

Advice

I would like to advise to any student that no matter the internship, you will find things you love and dislike about it. At the Southwest Florida Water Management District, the good times MUCH outweighed the down times.
