Exciting and hands-on product marketing, brand marketing, and product management experience. Loved my close-knit cohort as well as the close proximity to senior business leaders and various business functions across the company.
What I wish was different
You're on your own for housing! Be sure to reach out to Wake Forest University or subleases nearby as early as possible or you might have to make some last minute decisions that will be financially costly.

Product Management Intern
June - August 2022 • Winston-Salem, NC
What I liked
I liked how I was able to work on my own project and speak to a lot of new people. I was really able to make this experience personable.
What I wish was different
Would've liked some of the HR experiences to be a little clearer or go a little faster. Sometimes even my own manager was confused about what was happening because it wasn't communicated to them.
Advice
Go out of your comfort zone and meet people to gain the knowledge you can't get in a classroom.

Procurement Intern
June - August 2019 • Winston-Salem, NC
What I liked
I liked that projects I was able to work on. I was given full autonomy and was accountable for all deadlines, budgets, and savings targets. It felt very immersive.
What I wish was different
I wish they had helped with finding housing in a larger sense other than connecting out of state interns. I also wish they had a longer duration than 9 weeks.
Advice
Be creative and think 5 steps ahead - they will be expecting you to do so and you do not wants to be caught off guard.
