Quality Co-op
May - August 2021 • Elyria, OH
What I liked
I liked how the quality department ran and the project management skills I learned. The people there were very nice and this alone led to a lot of growth. My coworkers were easy to reach. When communicating with people outside of "my branch" I got timely and respectful answers.
What I wish was different
Unfortunately, my co-op was online. However, my supervisors and coworkers were still easily accessible when needed.
Advice
Quality is a different aspect of engineering and there is a lot to learn. Quality is not for everyone, but it is good to have new experiences.

Good work experience in the Manufacturing Industry.

That the company would've actually shown it cared more about its business. Help let the business interns be more cooperative and helpful.

It is a great internship to have while you are still in school and taking classes. Usually pretty flexible work schedule. Be prepared however to put up with a lot of unclear tasks.
