“During my internship at the Social Security office in Douglas, AZ, I enjoyed many things such as coworkers, challenges, and my daily tasks. Every single one of coworkers was very helpful during my entire internship. Any time I needed guidance to complete a task, my coworkers would always find time to show me how to complete the task. When I first began my internship, it was challenging to complete many tasks because I needed to complete all tasks according to specific laws and policies. After finally understanding all of the policies and how to complete the tasks, it made my days much easier and more exciting.”
