Learn How Creativity Becomes Innovation

Q: How do you plan to make an impact during your Internship/Co-Op?
A: “My Health, Safety & Environmental Manager (“HSE”) and I try to utilize an open-door policy where we consistently remind team members that if they have an HSE-related concern or question, they can always swing by and ask us. Personally, I believe my most significant impacts so far have been attempting to reduce our carbon footprint through expanding our recycled waste profiles and working with team members towards reducing workplace hazards to ensure that controls (hierarchy of controls) in place are appropriate.”
Marco Antoinio de la Rosa Moreno, Customer Service Intern, AS-Mexico
Q: What new skills do you hope to gain during your Internship/Co-Op?

Q: How will this Internship/Co-Op be helpful for you in your education and future career?
A: “This Co-Op will be helpful to my education and future career because I will quickly gain many skills and learn new coding languages, programs, and techniques that I can apply to any coding I do. Working in a large company and supporting the placement of products into the market while collaborating with groups of people across the globe is a very beneficial experience for me as a college student.”

"The skillset I developed from working with multiple sites in my internship helped me advance my HR 'craft' and allowed me to build relationships and trust with leaders and colleagues in the organization. Those relationships have been critical to deepening my knowledge of the business, collaborating on cross-functional projects, and finding new opportunities for my professional growth at Barnes."
