InternshipInternship

I completed my Administrative Internship in the Administrative Office Systems Department at Spokane Falls Community College, Winter 2005.

My advisor was Linda Roth, Department Chair and my supervisor was Lou Dunham, Instructor.

This was an opportunity to use the office skills I acquired while attending SFCC.

Internship ReflectionInternship Reflection

When I first met with Linda to talk about my internship, I was a little nervous

because didn’t know where I would be working. When she said she wanted me

to work with her and Lou, I was excited, yet at the same time I was

apprehensive. I wasn’t sure if I could do the job to their expectations; I didn’t

want to let them down.

I wouldn’t trade this experience for anything! They made me feel confident

and comfortable in my position. I was able to take the projects they gave me

and complete them within the deadlines assigned to each one.

There were many days that I felt overwhelmed by the things I needed to do, but

I put those feelings aside and focused on the tasks at hand.

Doing this internship has given me confidence in myself and made me aware

that I can do any job I am given.
