I was also able to incorporate a lot of my own ideas and activities into the internship too!<\/p>\n<p>If the opportunity ever arises for you to become an intern, or to take part in some extra ambassador roles I would strongly recommend it.<\/p>\n<p>One of my favourite features of this internship was the structured time I had to work. I would wake up on a Thursday knowing that my shift was from 10:00 till 13:00, and that I could give my undivided attention into the work. Though the zero-hour structure of the ambassador programme is something I like, I really did enjoy having this segment of time that was structured to do my job. It meant I could focus on the tasks at hand and clock off at 13:00 with 3 hours of work completed.<\/p>\n<p>A memorable moment for me will always be the podcasts! Even though I am an English student and writing is a passion of mine, co-hosting a podcast was a lot of fun for me.<\/p>\n<p>I met some interesting people as guests and got to learn a lot about them, as well as what goes on behind the scenes.<\/p>\n<p>I also worked on the Ambassador Caf\u00e9 and got to meet a lot more Ambassadors through doing this. I hadn\u2019t previously been to a Caf\u00e9 event, but helping host it as well, as writing articles about it, has made me want to get involved more!<\/p>\n<p>Another aspect, among many, that was attractive to me about the internship is that it is a great experience\/job to put on my CV. The skills I have gained from a job like this have been great and I feel that future employers would be looking for said skills.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, I would like to say thank you to my team for being very supportive in my internship and I look forward to working with everyone in the future!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now that my time as an intern is coming to an end, I can say honestly that I have learnt a lot, had a lot &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/outreach-news\/2021\/03\/30\/ambassador-intern-insights-george-sharp\/\">Read&nbsp;more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":67467,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[163993],"tags":[211655,92443,211646],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/outreach-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1699"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/outreach-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/outreach-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/outreach-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/67467"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/outreach-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1699"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/outreach-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1699\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1701,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/outreach-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1699\/revisions\/1701"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/outreach-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1699"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/outreach-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1699"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.kent.ac.uk\/outreach-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1699"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
