As the COO of McKinley Rice, I've had the privilege of witnessing the journey of many talented interns who aspire to kickstart their careers. While their enthusiasm is commendable, it's disheartening to see a recurring pattern of unpreparedness among some of them. I often come across unprepared aspirants, who write appealing emails, but their efforts of standing on those big, written words often withdraw as soon as they land the role.  What's the deal, you ask? Well, here's what I've observed: 🔹 Punctuality? Often a struggle. 🔹 Right tools/devices? Not always on hand. 🔹 Leaving early? More common than you'd think. 🔹 Leaves aplenty? Sometimes, it feels like a forest! But here's the real question: Why? Is it a lack of seriousness when it comes to learning or something deeper that calls their ethics into question? #Internships are an incredible opportunity to learn, grow, and pave the way for a successful career. Yet, it's vital for interns to approach them with dedication, respect for the workplace, and a commitment to honing their skills. Let's remember, that internships are a two-way street. Companies invest time and resources in nurturing future talent, and interns benefit by gaining invaluable experience. It's a win-win when both parties are fully committed! #internship2023 #ethics #internshipexperience #interns #graduatecareers #worklifebalance #morals #cultureofcare #learningandgrowing
