Brittle Materials Team Intern

June - September 2017 • Cupertino, CA

What I liked

I loved my internship because I learned a lot and gained so much experience in such a short period of time. At Apple you are surrounded by some of the smartest people that challenge you to work hard, collaborate, communicate clearly and effectively, and think critically for problem solving. The internship was very hands on and project based. Each intern takes on a primary project that they work on throughout the summer along with several side tasks that come and go. The other interns and your manager are extremely helpful when it comes to brainstorming. I liked the emphasis on communication because it helps everyone plan and get things done.

What I wish was different

I wish I had more time to work there.

Advice

Work hard, but make sure you hang out with your intern friends.
