We’ve just kicked off our first project, and it’s an important one. Our task is to revamp a four-page infographic, and the section I’m tackling, with the assistance of my coworker, focuses on updating the map data. To begin, we crafted an Excel spreadsheet, carefully inputting the numbers representing student applications to Brooklyn College from various areas within the boroughs.

It was quite the undertaking, as accuracy was important. We wanted to ensure our data was precise and reflective of the real numbers. Despite the time it took, there was something oddly serene about the process. We were really focused on the task, almost finding a sense of calm among the detailed work.

For the work culture, because it’s a work from home job, we didn’t have to worry much about work attire but we did have meetings on zoom every week about the first project and future people that will be joining the internship. Whenever i did have questions, i would communicate via text or emails to my colleague.
