Hi Max! I feel like you said what we are all thinking. Starting a job, even in something you are earning a degree in, is extremely intimidating. Especially with something like SEO, where you can never really know it all. I also had an internship this semester where I really had no prior experience in what I was doing. However, I think those kinds of experiences really do teach you a lot. I am sure you are leaving your time at Stream feeling like you got something out of it and learned not only the skillset of SEO, but also that no task is ever too big or too scary. As cliché as it is to say, you really can do anything you put your mind to! Best of luck to you in the future.

Hey Max! You bring up a lot of relatable feelings that an intern experiences when they first enter a new job. I felt the same way about being a rookie and making a bunch of mistakes, but as you said, it’s all a part of the learning process. You only learn by making mistakes and asking questions. Keep up the good work!

Hey Max, glad to read about your experience. I also had a lot of trouble getting over the fact that I was a rookie and that I would have trouble until I learned the ropes. No one starts at a full sprint, and those who do tend to burn out early on. I agree in this pandemic-living that the internship didn’t quite take the form I’d been expecting, but I still think it went better than expected – hope you feel the same. Cheers
