While interning for the City of Moorhead, I enjoyed the variety of projects that I was able to work on. This gave me the opportunity to develop a variety of skills, as well as make connections with many people from different departments.

The most rewarding part of my job was working on projects that benefited the community, such as the Minnesota GreenStep Cities Program.

My internship with the City helped me gain a variety of skills - such as the ability to work and collaborate with people from different backgrounds, effective communication skills, and the ability to handle multiple projects of varying sizes and importance at once.

Everyone at the City is very friendly and supportive - they genuinely want to see you succeed. It's a great work environment, whether you're applying for an internship or a long-term career.
