Rishi’s advice: “Don’t be afraid to take initiative in your internship. It may be easy to get your daily work done, but try to find ways to go above and beyond.”

I interned at Children’s National Medical Center in Washington D.C. I was a research intern in the Medical Education Department.
Getting started...I would definitely recommend my internship to other students. Working in a hospital this past summer gave me the motivation to push forward with the pre-med track and realize that the long nights studying are worth it in the end. The Career Center was very supportive to my interests and needs in my decision process. I was able to approach the staff members for advice as well as questions involved with my specific interests. The Career Center also gave tips on how to make the most out of my internship.
Bringing my story to life...I truly enjoyed interacting with the staff at Children’s National Hospital. The doctors and nurses I was fortunate enough to work with took the time to make sure I understood the procedures and treatment plans for each patient. Because Children’s National is a pediatric teaching hospital, the doctors were very patient and ready to meet me at my level of understanding. Don’t be afraid to ask questions or schedule lunches with staff members. Some of my most meaningful conversations this summer were over a cup of coffee with a doctor or nurse.
My internship take-away...After spending time at Children’s Hospital, I am not only more comfortable with the pre-med track, but I am excited to go to medical school. As an intern in the Medical Education department, I helped build the online modules that are tailored for first and second year medical students. After gaining a better sense of the content and practices that we learn in medical school, I became a lot more excited about life after undergrad. I still realize that the path to becoming a doctor may be long and exhausting at times, but this summer truly gave me a sense of why it is all worth it.
