What interns want?
Posted by: pin on: 04 Dec, 2007
Throughout the years, we have batches of intern students from different local Universities and Colleges who come and join us, working for a duration of 3 to 5 months. This job match-making event can be quite dreadful for some, as when they go into companies who make them a slave of BKL and replacement for office boy, without proper training and trust.
We are lucky to have lots of happy interns. These feedback contains no artificial ingredients!
1. Interns are like leeches (they are never enough with blood new things). They have greatest passion to learn.
2. They are not active on working hour, as they always sleep late. Usually takes about 1 week to overcome this jet lag. Good adaptability. Tea break in the first week is a must!
3. They are careless in first the week only (because school teachers never go through their projects/assignments in details while our clients are).
4. They can’t sit here without any work, we have to make them busy - or at least give them MSN or Skype.
5. Last minute internship report is norm (Why report, not Blog from all interns, so knowledge and experience is shared and polished, change!)
6. Lecturer’s visit makes them nervous, so tell them earlier when the date is set.
What else, interns?
