How can I be a good intern?

Double check your work and try to think through what you're doing. What do I mean by that? For example, If you're pulling buyers for me, make sure you take the time to look into what each buyer does snd if it makes sense to the overall business. Idk how many time intern mess up simple tasks like that by just pulling a screen off CapIQ and slapping into a spreadsheet. That's one example but make sure you're doing the basics 100%. My experience as an intern and now as an analyst is that my favorite interns were ones who did exactly what I ask for, in the exact format I asked for while also clearly highlighting any issues, caveats or important points. Do as you're told, don't get cute with formatting and be responsive/thoughtful. When I send a task over, respond to let me know you're either working on it or going to work on it and when. Communication is key here as well. Realize that you won't be working on the most important stuff in the world as an intern but those who take great notes on calls, are responsive at all times and are willng to take the shit that analysts dont want to do (we've all been there as interns) are the ones that i hold in high regard. I call it being great at the basics.
