Stories ofour interns
I learned a lot during my internship and it was great fun. After my internship I got to stay on as weekend help.
I was able to learn so much at Cadushy and had a fantastic time on Bonaire.
I gained a lot of sales experience in both B2C and B2B settings. It let me practise and develop my communication and commercial skills. And it was fun too!
