Completing an internship at
U.S. Senator Cory Bookers Camden office was nothing short of extraordinary. As an intern, I was able
to witness firsthand how the senator currently resolves issues in our
federal government. I even had the
opportunity to meet the senator
himself. The most important lessons I learned during my internship
at the Senators office include:
1. Know exactly who you're
working for.
When working for public figures,
especially ones with a high profile
like Cory Booker, it is important to
know their story! Listen to podcasts,
read news articles and watch
YouTube videos of their speeches.
Learn their key messages and goals.
From a PR standpoint, this is important because you want to make sure
you project an image that reflects
your organizations objectives.
2. Respect the people you work
for and don't be afraid to ask
questions.
3. Build bridges.
Maintaining connections that
strengthen your professional network
is a valuable accomplishment. Internships brim with people knowledgeable in your desired career field, so
get to know them! If they are willing
to share their contact information,
continue to build that professional relationship long after the internship is
over. Letters of recommendation, future job prospects and next-step internships are just a few benefits of
staying in touch.
