"Here you are given a genuine opportunity to contribute to things and make a differece. The assignments are important for the organization, which naturally increases your motivation. But perhaps the most important thing is that as a summer intern here, you are a full member of your team; they listen to you, your input counts and you have a chance to really show what you can do."
