"Did a lot of workforce planning and very interesting HR work" Position: HR Intern Location: Englewood, CO Pay: $$14/hour Duration: 10 weeks Review posted on 6/8/2011

I gained real world experience: 1 2 3 4 5 Agree My boss treated me with respect: 1 2 3 4 5 Strongly Agree I enjoyed my fellow co-workers: 1 2 3 4 5 Strongly Agree The work I performed was interesting: 1 2 3 4 5 Strongly Agree I feel better positioned to gain a fulltime job: 1 2 3 4 5 Agree Overall, I was satisfied with my internship: 1 2 3 4 5 Strongly Agree

Pros: This wasn't typical HR work, much more strategic.

Maybe I caught Arrow Electronics at a weird time, but this internship was amazing and allowed for problem solving with creativity. Also, everybody was great to me and I really enjoyed my mangers. Cons: I wouldn't be able to start in a strategic HR role, I think. I'd have to pick generalist, recruitment, benefits, and then eventually wind up there. Advice for other students: Arrow Electronics is a smart company and I was impressed by the HR internship - definitely try to do it if you are interested.
