Version 71: The young applicant who sought tips for the internship interview ended up signing the agreement.

Exciting News: I Landed My First Internship!

I am thrilled to share some fantastic news with you all—I’ve secured my very first internship! After reaching out for advice on Reddit, particularly from the wonderful community over at r/cybersecurity, I am officially on the path to kickstarting my career.

In just a few weeks, once my summer break begins, I will be signing my Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) and internship contract. I’ll be collaborating on an exciting web application project alongside a fellow QA intern. This internship is set to span three months, and if I demonstrate strong skills and performance, there’s a possibility of transitioning into a part-time role afterward, with compensation.

I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who took the time to respond to my post with guidance and encouragement. Your support means the world to me!

A Note of Appreciation

I was truly touched by all the congratulatory messages and kind words. The community spirit here is inspiring, and I appreciate the virtual awards as well! Thank you all for your continued support; I’m looking forward to sharing my journey with you.

Stay tuned for more updates as I embark on this new adventure!
