Any internship is an invaluable opportunity for not just students and recent graduates but practically anyone to gain hands-on work experience. For many interns at TRG International, their time with the company exceeded their original expectations and provided valuable lessons that would last well beyond their internship.
Here are some highlights from interns reflecting on their experience:
Applied learning in action
One intern commented that their goal was to "gain hands-on experience while applying the knowledge of the tools that I learned in school." They found that TRG International provided ample opportunities to do just that. Whether it was using data analysis software, coding languages, or project management skills, interns could actively apply what they learned in a real work environment.
Expanding skill sets
Another intern joined to "learn a new coding language," which would benefit their future career path. TRG International supported this goal by providing projects that involved working with different technologies. They left having expanded their technical abilities in valuable ways.

Networking opportunities
The internship also offered networking opportunities, as one noted, "getting plenty of opportunities to meet lots of great and amazing people." These connections can lead to advice, referrals, and lifelong professional relationships down the road.
Attention to detail
Managing data for the intern program itself was a learning experience for one participant. It taught the importance of being "extra careful and paying attention to details" when handling sensitive information. Valuable lessons like this will stay with an intern as they progress in their career.
Remote collaboration
Working remotely was a new experience one intern had. As more jobs adopt flexible arrangements, this is a useful skill to gain early in one's career.
Real-world applications
Overall, interns found that TRG International delivered on expectations to "gain real-life experience and apply what I have learned into the work that I do." The feedback shows how impactful practical experience can be in rounding out one's educational foundation.
From these intern perspectives, it's clear that TRG International offers a meaningful internship experience. Students gain not only technical expertise but also softer skills that will serve them for many years to come. No doubt, future interns will continue to expand their talents in valuable ways through opportunities with the company.
