Distibution Sales Intern

May - August 2024 • Columbus, OH

What I liked

This internship is very well structured and forces you to learn all aspects of the business. I spent almost every week doing something different. It was great to get out of my comfort zone and experience what I learned at school in a real way. This is definitely NOT an internship where you just get coffee and answer a few emails a day.

What I wish was different

I was challenging to step into this role because summer is the middle of busy season. Be ready to be a little overwhelmed at first but it definitely gets easier as time goes on.

Advice

I would recommend that you are always ready to learn. With every week being different it can be really easy to make mistakes so don't be afraid to ask lots of questions mess up.
