My Internship Experiences

 About five weeks ago, I was just thinking what I could gain and what kind of jobs I would do from the internship. my internship supervisor introduced me to a company called "Job2Go" which gives job opportunities for immigrants in Australia. When I knew the company name, it caught my attention and I immediately googled what exactly this company does, because all I could prepare was being familiar with my new work place. Before the internship, I met some of my friends from the home university. They seemed confident and I could not feel any anxieties from them so I tried to be composed and enthusiastc like them whrn the first day has commenced ; however, it was far from my expectation and my host supervisor was not in the workplace. I was really confused about what I needed to do, so I asked other workers what my job is, then one of them emailed the supervisor and told me a job which was data entry. During the first week, I kept doing data entry using Microsoft Exccel and I was expecting  the supervisor to give me a different task, but the situaton has not changed even the following week, so I decided to ask my intern supervisor to change the workplace.

After a week, I got a message from her ant it was about the new company information. Therefore, I could work that company from week four to the last day. Part of what the company does is multicultural pastoral care which I have never heard in my life, but the environment was so impressive that I could enjoy working and focus on doing my own tasks. Although my working duration at the company was only two weeks, every worker in the office was friendly and supportive to me. What I have learnt from the company was how to use Microsoft Word, Microsoft Editor and some office machines. In addition to this, I learned how to arrange and analyze collected information. These tasks were not so dificult as I expected, but I could improve the skill of Microsoft Word and learn how to use a range of office machines. The experiences from the company were so much more than previous company experiences and I was able to know the differences between Australian company and Japanese company. Therefore, I had valuable experiences from five weeks internship program and I believe it will be a great advantage for me to succeed in my future carrier.
