HGI's Future Pacesetters

My Internship Experience

I joined HGI as an intern with the goal of gaining practical experience in a sales role. The manufacturing team immediately embraced me and supported me in any way they could, showing me the ropes, offering feedback and advice, and pushing me to be the best. I was equipped with the training and resources I needed to succeed and the office environment kept me excited to be there every day. After experiencing the highs that come with helping someone take the next step forward in their career, it was an easy decision to join HGI as a full-time employee after graduating.

Going into my internship, I was eager to be part of a high-performing team, as a college athlete I thrive in a competitive environment that pushes your limits every day. My internship helped me to improve my communication and conversational skills and find my own voice. The training taught me what questions need to be asked, but the experience of actually being on the phone was vital to finding my own voice and making my conversations with candidates feel natural and consultative. HGI has a really fun culture, but also a demanding culture, you can be incredibly successful here while having lots of fun, but it takes a lot of work day in and day out to be successful.
