Internship Job Shadow Narrative

The BIS Internship Experience

1-page, single-spaced, typed, paragraphs.

  1. Write a narrative that illustrates your internship experience. We recommend you focus on one or two of the most memorable days and/or experiences during your time.
  2. Be sure to include:
    • Relevant details, such as, what the company/organization does and why you are interested in this field
    • Descriptions of the people you directly worked with, including their personality and their attitude towards their job
    • Any challenges you encountered or witnessed during your time
    • Any epiphanies?
    • Compartmentalize your time. In other words, leave the reader with a sense that you learned something from your experience.
  3. We DON'T WANT a week-to-week summary – be engaging.
