After about a month at Make-A-Wish®
Michigan, I am beginning to get to know many of my fellow interns and
colleagues. Being one of the youngest
interns in the office, I really consider many of the other interns as mentors.
This past week I met an intern, Karol, who
is going to be a senior next year at Alma. She is working with the volunteer
team but on Tuesdays, I work right next to her. We ate lunch together last week
and it was great getting to know her story and why she chose to work at
Make-A-Wish.
Where I sit with Hannah on Thursdays |
On Thursdays, I get to sit with Hannah. She
is going to be a graduating from MSU in December. I think she could be a great
mentor because a few weeks ago, when I had to fax lots of donation requests,
she showed me her internship guide and helped me when I had questions.
On Tuesdays, when I sit near Karol, I also
sit near Megan and Susan who are employed by Make-A-Wish. Whenever I need help
with anything they are there. The other day I was making a follow-up call to a
company, and once I was done with the conversation, Susan was able to give me
feedback on how I spoke with them. I was thankful for the feedback because it
will only improve my skills.
I am going to continue looking for possible
mentors, but I know that if I ever need anything, any person in the office will
be willing to help!
