The Peices Slowly Fall Together

Meeting Andy who is the President and CEO of the company didn't feel as intimidating as I had expected it to be, especially in this warm house setting and having already met Joanne first. I found Andy to be much like one of my favorite tios (uncles) who is very laid back in a sense with day to day situations whether at home or in the office, but a very intellegent man who knows his industry like the back of his hand. A man who owns his own company, is well respected by the local community of people he works with and deservingly so. He has tremendous amount of experience and knowledge that you pick up on immediately after being around him for even five minutes.

He explained what his company was about and how it operated, then explained the role the intern would play in it. I wanted to jump out of my chiar to tell him he had found the intern he was looking for. I wanted Andy to be my mentor of this side of the industry which I truthfully didn't know too much about, but knew I could learn here with plenty of hands on experience working directly with him and his staff.

I can't explain how excited I was to recieve the email the following week asking me if I wanted the intern position. I had been upset all summer since I hadn't recieved a call back from my other interviews. My family kept telling me not to worry because something better would come along. I honestly didn't believe that was possible so late in the summer, but I know now this is exactly where I should be!
