The First Rung: Why Internships Still Matter - The Student Lens with Charlie Askew & Aoibhinn Murphy

This is Part 2 of a 2-part series on internships, and what happens when students move from the classroom into the workplace. Charlie Askew & Aoibhinn Murphy are students currently working on the award-winning BSc in Digital Business & Innovation at Dublin City University Business School (DCU), a programme started by our previous guest, Professor Brian Harney. Charlie has an internship with Enterprise Ireland, and Aoibhinn has an internship with PwC. Hear the top skills the students have learned in their internships, how part-time work experience can prepare students for internships, the importance of feedback in an internship programme, how much responsibility to give your interns, and why the students have become more confident throughout their internships.
