Sarah sits down with her two interns Emily and Justin to talk about internships and their personal experience with interning under Sarah. They get into some technical aspects of the internship like how they found out about it and the onboarding process and then get into their first impression from the first months of working under Sarah. They team also talks about their biggest “oopsies”. Justin talks about how he locked himself out of his room right before a podcast and Emily talks about her roommate coming in and interrupting a meeting. This lead to a great point that interns are learning what professional means and Sarah defines it on the spot as “authentic courtesy”. 

Sarah asks for some advice for executives who are potentially bringing on interns and both interns emphasize strong and open communication as well as developing personal relationships. Sarah emphasizes that caring about the “who” rather than the “what” is more beneficial to help interns grow and learn. Getting into some quick tips from Sarah, she talks about the importance of understanding that your boss is imperfect and learning just as much as the interns are.
