It was an amazing opportunity to grow my professionalism, communication skills, grow my understanding of politics, and establish good relationships with many different people in positions of responsibility. Observing my Senator and doing projects for him all gave me more insight into what kind of career I want to pursue and how I am currently considering going for a Master’s degree in political science; which is something I hadn’t considered until this internship.
My internship in Ireland was a fantastic opportunity to grow in professionalism, communication skills, understanding of politics, and relationships with people in varying positions. Observing and working with a senator gave me extraordinary insight into what kind of career I want to pursue. I am now considering a Master’s degree in political science, a path I hadn’t considered until this internship.
