Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
One of the new skills that I have developed, which is a key skill when on the internship, is communicating with so many different colleagues not just fellow interns. this way you can grow your network and find out about different departments and opportunities that may suit you.

Of course as an intern you do not know everything, so the support about navigating and transitioning is highly helpful also.
