Making the most of my SA
Hey I am currently an intern at a shitty ER firm in NY.
The firm is shitty, but the people are really nice. In fact, they blatantly talk about the firms they have been interviewing with and the joke in the office whenever someone leaves is "take us with you." (Some guy actually got in trouble for replying to a formal departure letter with that, everyone in the office was loling about it for dayings.)
Long story short I have been getting a lot of bitch work but the funny thing is my team members apologize each time they give me bitch work, tell me they are busy but as soon as they are free they will give me something better. They actually mean it too, they are willing to take me to any meeting, try and find a way to get me to travel if the opp comes (only happened once but still), and in other words they do what they can for me but given how unstructured and undirected my internship is, IDK what they can do. Hell, half the time I just think of something that needs to be done and do it because they are too busy.
Now, my question is, how would you guys take full advantage of this scenario. Its a bad firm, its an unstructured firm, I have been given no training, but it gives me free range to do whatever I am allowed to do.
I mean, could I potentially initiate coverage or continue coverage that is about to be droped? Do you need certification to do that or can an intern do it? Is there something I can do as an intern that will maybe help get my name out there. I am positive my team will support me I just need to come to them with ideas.
At least you get to meet clients. Not every intern gets to do that.
You could try to initiate coverage on a company but I doubt anyone would read a report from some intern, in fact your firm would lose all credibility for being stupid enough to let some student do that. I doubt you'd even get your name on it if it did get published. Your boss would just put their name on it.
Read old reports (might suck if it really is such a terrible firm) but if your lucky you might find some decent primers/studies on your industry.
Look through and try to understand/recreate old models. Maybe even ask them to explain it to you.
Mine sweeper.
Read reports from strong firms, you will probably have access to them. Also, since these guys are so willing to help you, start networking. Ask them if they could introduce you to other people in ER or other industries you're interested in.
Honestly it all depends if they will put your name on it. IDK what the deal is cause to be honest at this point I really dont see any point in doing initiation reports wiithout your name on it (and in my opinion is pointless with it too but hey)
