Education and Advocacy Industrial Intern Review

My role consisted of managing online education platforms for the LDB divisions, assisting in events, rewards, customer service and trainings.

I was given various responsibility and was able to manage projects that I was leading with projects that involved my team. This was a great opportunity to lead and still work in a team, all while maintaining positive relationships and keeping a common objective in mind: to expand dermatological education and deliver better education experiences.

I have become a much better team player, balancing positive relationships with my team while prioritising tasks and meeting deadlines. Engaging with partner businesses and stakeholders, as well as customers, has been helpful to develop my understanding of the business, organisation and leadership skills.

I received proper guidance from not only my manager, but from other senior team members and stakeholders that had been in the business for a longer period of time. I never felt disregarded or lost in what I was doing, as I always felt like I could go to someone for support or to ask questions about the tasks and projects.

Very welcoming. It felt safe to make mistakes and give your opinion, despite having different perspectives or priorities at times. The projects I was given also allowed me to expand my role and leave my comfort zone, which made this a very enriching experience for my personal and professional growth.

I really enjoyed my placement. I felt like I was a valuable member of my team and a big influence on the projects I worked on. The day to day interaction with people from the company (stakeholders, managers, staff, other interns) made me feel included and motivated to work.
