Thank You
Hello Mr. Gomez!
Thank you for much for taking out the time for what I imagine can be a full day to talk to me (and my fellow classmates). It was amazing to learn about Kraft on a whole and in detail in regards to sales. I may not have known the sales side since I will be interning in logistics, but your knowledge will help me understand how everything works together. The store visit was...
Orientation down in Irvine
Day one is over, and I’m madly in love with my internship so far. Yay!
But for day two, I’m spending my hours elsewhere. As part of that situation I told you about that I had to deal with before starting my internship, I had to go to a Kraft orientation down in Irvine. I was to meet up with the other Troy interns (Sara from ACE and Andrew from business class) to meet an Alfredo Gomez, the...

I had arranged with Mr. Redd to have my internship for 6 hours a day, 8 am to 2 pm, 5 days a week, for five weeks. There was a situation that I had to deal with the weekend right before,...
Finding the Internship

Even last summer I looked into an internship with Disneyland, and my hopes fell flat when they only take college interns. I mean, who wouldn’t want to intern at Disneyland?! I really wanted to do it specifically with their musical division, you know...

Troy Tech Internship
I figured I should start this blog from the very beginning. Albeit late, it’s here.
I don’t know about anyone else, but everyone I’ve met asks “What is this internship of yours?” I think I’ve got this one down pat.
This internship is part of my school’s Troy Tech program. The Troy Tech program is a program that students can be a part of throughout their...
