Internship Year: 2014
Then: Intern at GE Capital
Now: Finance Professional

“When you’re out of university, you’re still wet behind the ears. Having this opportunity gave me that basic foundation to be confident in future roles.”

“Six months in, GE Capital made the role permanent. Years later, every interviewer still asks about it – the brand name travels further than you expect. But what the internship really gave me wasn’t a line on a resume. It was the things no classroom teaches: communication, office dynamics, knowing when to step outside your lane. Your first job still matters. More than most people realize.”
