In Ireland, the internship program lasts for eight months; depending on each situation, it can turn into a six-month part-time opportunity. This meant that after my internship, I worked as a part-time project coordinator until I finished college. Then, once I graduated, I was offered a full-time role, and I had to adjust to the increased responsibilities and expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As I settled into my first job, I thought, \u201cYou\u2019re not an intern anymore, and you\u2019ve finished your training, so you should be ready for the responsibilities of a full-time job.&#8221;&nbsp; So, I became more active at work and embedded myself in the new role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\" id=\"h-how-did-your-role-as-an-intern-prepare-you-for-current-position-and-responsibilities\">How did your role as an intern prepare you for current position and responsibilities?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>My initial lessons learned as an intern was to build relationships, be trustworthy, and do the work. Regarding skills, I realized I wasn\u2019t very outgoing about speaking in meetings, so as I became more involved in them, I started to feel comfortable contributing to the meeting&#8217;s agenda. After I moved into the full-time project coordinator role, I was confident enough to partake in and lead meetings, and sharing my thoughts became another great way of collaborating with teams.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"block_b3cda67f6dc6659654238247fc3f635b\" class=\"quote block no-horizontal-padding dark-content\">\n\t<div class=\"container\" style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">\n\t\t<div class=\"quote-lines-top\"><\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"quote-marks-top\" style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">\n\t\t\t<svg viewBox=\"0 0 33 27\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"m33 20.8c0-3.9-2.9-6.3-6.4-6.3-1.1 0-1.8.3-2.1.5.1-4.3 3.3-9 8-10.1v-4.9c-6 .6-14.2 5.9-14.2 18.2 0 5.9 3.6 8.8 7.8 8.8 3.9 0 6.9-2.8 6.9-6.2zm-18.3 0c0-3.9-2.9-6.3-6.4-6.3-1.1 0-1.8.3-2.1.5.1-4.3 3.3-9 8-10.1v-4.9c-6 .6-14.2 5.9-14.2 18.2 0 5.9 3.6 8.8 7.8 8.8 3.9 0 6.9-2.8 6.9-6.2z\" fill=\"#fff\"\/><\/svg>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">The internship also taught me a lot about time management skills.

I was proactive, keeping track of time management, communicating often, and asking questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For every step I have taken in my career, I think the biggest challenge is impostor syndrome. Even though I can see the results of my work every day, the impostor syndrome is still there at the back of my mind, pushing me to continue to be better and improve. How I solve this challenge is managing day-to-day tasks and continuously trying to develop my skills.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marketing is not an easy or simple job, no matter how rewarding it might be. It\u2019s constantly changing and requires continual adaptability and flexibility.
