Internship Year, Title, and Company
Summer 2020, Finance Intern at eBay
Application process: Interviewed in October from a referral, got the offer 4 days later and had 2 weeks to decide
Why did this internship interest you: I am passionate about eBay's mission of creating economic opportunity for all and wanted to further develop my finance skills.
How did you complete the internship - remotely or on-site: Remotely.
Description of internship: I worked on the corporate development team, 40 hours a week. My project was seeking out a potential acquisition in the parts and accessories industry. I also participated in intern bonding events with the other 99 Interns.
How it could have been different if not remote: If I was on site it would have been easier to ask my boss questions, connect with my co-workers, and understand the company culture
How did this internship shape your next move: I have decided I do not want to work in finance and will focus more on marketing.
