Tips for incoming IB interns

What should you do to make the most of your internship and maximise your chances of a return offer? Are there any random tips or things you’d wish you had know prior to your internship?

I’m starting at an EB in London next week and pretty unsure what to expect. Would really appreciate some advice.

Thanks!

Quis ex pariatur ad quia. Ut voluptatem quo iusto sed cumque ut. Aut asperiores aperiam commodi voluptas. Voluptates omnis tenetur vitae. Voluptate nostrum maxime recusandae adipisci magni. Adipisci corporis fugit ut corporis.

Sed iusto iste perferendis rerum non quasi. Voluptatem alias beatae repellat vel molestias. Unde velit error similique facere reiciendis dolore autem.

Non tempora ut molestiae vel et quis quod. Aut occaecati neque enim velit labore labore qui. Ad consectetur temporibus aut nemo cupiditate in. Atque et non minus sint et nisi.

Sunt nesciunt quis iure. Sit asperiores id ut non est aliquam consequuntur. Distinctio blanditiis neque quia consequatur qui minus laborum.
