TDS

IT Resource Analyst Intern

May 2021 • Madison, WI

What I liked

The people are all very friendly, inclusive, and collaborative! I've worked with great teams. It's a very healthy environment, and the internship was very hands-on. You are always treated exactly like any full-time employee. I learned at least as much onsite in my duties, workshops, networking one-on-one meetings, and events as I did in my classes. Being fully remote gave me more time to study with no commute and helped me feel safe during the pandemic.

What I wish was different

Nothing. It was fantastic! I highly recommend!

Advice

Get involved, ask questions, and volunteer your ideas or for associate resource group opportunities. The entire organization all the way up to the VPs are very open, friendly, and willing to chat with interns, so it's a fantastic place to learn more about roles, departments, and network.
