Short Talk 23 (Listen and Read)

Welcome, all of our interns!

I would like to personally welcome each and every one of you.

Believe it or not, I was once a summer intern, as well.

Now, I have been a researcher at BioLabs for over ten years.

I learned more so much in my summer internship,

and still use that knowledge in my job today.

During that summer, I learned more about diseases than I did at university,

and I got to see real-life experiments.

But maybe most important,

I developed a work ethic that has stuck with me through the years.

I learned that I can multitask,

and I also was collaborating with coworkers for the first time.

These next three months will be a lot of work,

and sometimes you will wonder if it is worth it.

I can guarantee, this internship will be the building blocks of your future careers.
