Provide a general description of the work at your internship.
My responsibilities included designing an insurance application for internal use in the company that would describe in detail a client's new or rehabilitation construction projects. This process occasionally included going to and observing these construction sites. I also designed entry screens in Microsoft Outlook for the contract review process that would help to make the process run smoothly.
Did you have a mentor?
Yes
If so, how did he/she help you during your internship?
The intern team would meet with mentors at the end of every week to discuss the projects and any additional topics that could arise. This helped to ensure that we were accomplishing our goals on time. Our mentors also gave us advice on how to move forward with our projects.
