The purpose of the event was to provide a platform where interns could share their experiences with attendees, giving insights into their roles, challenges, and growth throughout their internships. The goal was to help students, particularly undergraduates, gain a realistic understanding of different internships, learn about industry expectations, and gather tips on securing and excelling in these roles. The event aimed to inspire students by hearing firsthand stories and networking with peers and professionals who had gone through similar journeys.
One of the key successes of the event was the overwhelmingly positive feedback from attendees, many of whom found the panel discussions and personal stories insightful. The event achieved its primary objective by offering meaningful guidance to students, helping them better prepare for their own internship journeys, and creating a sense of community among those interested in similar fields.
The most valuable resource for the event was the collaboration among the board members. Their efforts in setting up the event, managing logistics, and identifying relevant panelists ensured that the event was well-organized and impactful. Their teamwork contributed significantly to the smooth execution of the event.
There were a few logistical challenges, notably around food distribution. The event faced an issue with insufficient food, and many panelists did not receive meals, which could have impacted their experience. This issue highlighted a need for better planning around catering and logistics, especially for future events of similar scale.
Moving forward, one of the primary improvements would be to implement a more organized system for food distribution. Ensuring that all participants, especially panelists, receive their meals would enhance the overall event experience and demonstrate better hospitality.
Regarding promotional efforts, a key adjustment would be to curate a more diverse set of panelists. While the event featured many software engineers, incorporating a broader range of roles and industries would enrich the discussions and appeal to a wider audience. Future advertisements could emphasize this diversity to attract students from various fields and ensure the event provides more comprehensive insights.
