Twelve weeks fly by when you’re having internship fun. It cannot be overstated how proud every intern is of the work they accomplished this summer. Although twelve weeks is not a long time, the amount of growth that has occurred at JMP in this time is monumental.
Everyone has grown:
Many interns have been able to apply their studies in the work they are doing. “Being at JMP has given me that opportunity to apply that knowledge that I had into a real-world application as opposed to me doing it in my coursework that was only for grading,” Machine Learning Developer Intern Sohail Lokhandwala said. “So here I feel like there's a sense of purpose in the work that I'm doing.”
Ice cream social!
Through my own internship experience, I have found so much joy through communications, solidifying my career prospects. I am so excited to see how I can apply the knowledge of my internship to academia. IT intern Trevor Rathje shared a similar sentiment. “Learning JMP has helped me grow. Knowing the software is something I can brag about when I go back to school,” Trevor said.
Many interns are looking forward to taking JMP to their classrooms and labs. Passion about career and professional goals achieved by further understanding how industries use JMP and how to utilize the software in various projects within the company. Sales intern Brad Taber has seen his passion for sales and JMP software blossom, as he has learned how to communicate with customers of JMP. “The highlights have been talking to customers and the real-time conversations,” Brad said. “After telling them I was an intern, they took the time to explain how JMP has been helping their industries.”
From multitasking to getting used to the corporate lifestyle, time management and even communicating with a team, the interns have been learning about themselves as much as they are learning JMP and other invaluable professional skills. “I feel like being a part of a company that is so supportive and lets you be so independent as an intern has taught me so much,” Field Marketing Intern Maddi Walsleben said. “I've learned so much. I feel like the internship really helped me with my multitasking skills and being in a professional workspace as well. I feel like I've just learned so much from other people being willing to help me.”
The learning experiences of the interns would not have been so impactful if it weren’t for the enthusiastic, gracious people at JMP helping us learn.
