In terms of career development, I see this internship as an experience that gave me plenty of insight for my future taking into consideration both of my degrees. My internship also gave me the opportunity to apply a lot of knowledge I had gained from pursuing my communication degree. Even though I intend to find a career in the field of economics, the internship gave me experience allowing me to be successful in the HR field, broadening employment opportunities available to me upon graduation. As I enter my senior year, I need to have plans for my first job after graduating. Based on my research, economics is more competitive at the entry-level, so I know that from my experience at Austen Morris, I can choose to work in the communication field immediately out of college. Not only did this internship allow me to apply content I had learned from classes while abroad, but it allowed gave me to develop professional skills for any career.
