Maryland Chamber of Commerce interns reflect on:
GAINING INDUSTRY SPECIFIC SKILLS
“My role felt dynamic and challenging as it pushed me outside of my comfort zone. The duties changed daily as well, which taught me to work and think on my feet. I really felt like I have gained valuable hands on experience in the events industry.”
—Rebecca Floyd, Events Intern
THE VALUE OF TEAMWORK
“The amount of valuable, real life experience I have gained here at the Chamber has been not only exciting, but also incredibly valuable to me. The ability to work as part of a team—and not just for a team—has been incredibly valuable and has taught me incredible lessons on how businesses succeed when the organization as a whole works together for a common goal.”
—Hamzah Ameem, Business Development Intern
Stay tuned for our next Mentored in Maryland coming in August!
