Balancing internship & Team Building Committee - A Journey of Growth As an intern at ExxonMobil, I had the opprtunity to wear two hats - that of an intern and a member of the team building committee. It's been a journey filled with learning, challenges, and immense personal growth, and I'm excited to share some personal reflections on this unique experience. ~Dual Role, Double the Learning: Balancing my responsibilities as an intern and a committee member was no small feat, but it taught me the importance of time management, organization, and adaptability. I had the chance to experience both sides of the coin - contributing to the team while also planning an event to bring us closer together. ~Collaboration & Creativity: Being part of the team building committee allowed me to collaborate closely with colleagues from various teams. We brainstormed ideas, designed activities, and organized an event that brought our team closer than ever before. The experience of nurturing creativity and teamwork in this way was priceless. ~Global Perspective: This event wasn't just about fun; it was a chance to foster diversity and inclusion. We made sure to create activities that embraced our multicultural team, helping us appreciate different perspectives and work better together. ~Impact & Memories: I'm incredibly proud of what our committee achieved. The smiles, laughter, and strengthened bonds among our team members were a testament to the success of the event. These memories will stay with me as I continue my journey. I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the entire UCC team for entrusting me with this dual role and for the unwavering support throughout. This experience has been a defining chapter in my career journey, and I'm excited to apply the skills and insights gained as I move forward. #internshipexperience #TeamBuilding #growth #exxonmobil

For National Intern Day, I’d like to take a moment to recognize the wonderful work being done by the nine interns who joined our U.S. team this summer. At Ørsted, we talk a lot about the ways in which clean energy is crucial to reinvigorating core American industries, creating jobs in shipping, manufacturing, construction, and steelmaking. But in that discussion, it can be easy to overlook the why of it all. Why are we building clean energy today? Our answer: to shape tomorrow. The economy of tomorrow needs more domestic energy, the kind that strengthens national security and prioritizes the world around us. Future generations will create that world, starting with the early career talent dedicating their summer to Ørsted. That future is Kalina, interning with our Innovation team; Mimi, supporting Federal & Regulatory Affairs; Charles, working in Permitting & Marine Affairs. It's all the interns supporting our work across teams and departments, many of whom I’ve had the pleasure to meet. I see our internship program as a chance to bring the next generation into the clean energy workforce, and as an extension of Ørsted’s long-running Graduate Program. We have a range of roles open in project management, innovation, regulatory affairs, and more, functions our interns contribute to every day. As a region, we’re aiming to recruit interns annually, with the next cohort joining us in Summer 2025. I hope to see enthusiastic new faces in Texas, Rhode Island, New York, Illinois – anywhere our teams need an extra pair of hands to shape a cleaner tomorrow. https://us.orsted.com/

Pace is working to achieve our goal of operating 100 percent zero-emissions vehicles by the year 2040. But many other opportunities exist to advance clean transportation throughout our region. The Illinois Alliance for Clean Transportation recently started accepting applications for its Spring 2024 internship program. This internship is a great opportunity to gain experience in an emerging career path and help the region improve local air quality. #publictransportation #transit #zeroemissions

Summer at the Network usually starts off with our Annual Intern Virtual Brown Bag Lunch with the boss. 🤣 And what a pleasure it was to welcome our new intern class, another fantastic group of talented individuals and rising star professionals. 🌟 It's amazing to see students joining us from a wide range of colleges, from Princeton to Loyal University, some having just graduated, and others pursuing law degrees. Their diverse backgrounds and perspectives bring a breath of fresh air into our organization, which we believe is critical to helping us keep the Network responsive to the next generation of talent. These bright, engaging individuals have truly impressed me with their insightful questions and enthusiasm. One standout moment was when one of the interns asked, "What surprised you most about the industry, and what is something you never thought you would learn when you created this organization?" It made me reflect on the incredible journey we've had and the ever-evolving nature of our field, which we all agreed keeps us engaged, challenged and passionate about offshore wind. Over the years, our internship program has grown significantly, becoming more and more competitive. This is a direct reflection of the increasing interest in offshore wind, courses being offered in colleges and exposure to the industry at younger ages. What's particularly exciting is how well-prepared they are. These interns come with a solid understanding of the industry, allowing us to dive straight into more advanced discussions and put them to work on some complex projects. Are you seeing similar trends with your internship program? Are there other insights you want to share? Or just brag about your new summer talent? We would love to hear from you and please do tell us about the summer students lending their intellect and time to our industry. Here's to the NextWave of industry professionals and the continued growth of all of our internship programs! #InternshipProgram #FutureLeaders #CareerDevelopment #OffshoreWind

Paola H. was a Fall 2023 Systems Engineer Intern for Cummins! Here are some of her insights: “The most rewarding aspect of my internship at Cummins was supporting the development of robust risk management procedures for hydrogen internal combustion engines. Contributing to reduce greenhouse gas emissions was personally satisfying." " This internship has significantly influenced my career aspirations by deepening my understanding of sustainable engineering practices. I now aspire to contribute my skills to projects that have a positive impact on the environment in the engineering field.” “For those looking for internships, find opportunities that match what you like and what you want to do in your career. Don't be afraid of challenges, they're chances to learn and use what you've learned in real situations. It's important to make connections in the industry for both your personal and work growth. Pick challenges and projects that fit your long-term goals, values and improve your skills. Connect with people, seek guidance, and be ready to adapt in different work situations for a successful internship journey." You’re Phenomenal Paola! 🙌 Go Miner Interns!
