00:00:15.180 --> 00:00:19.420
I was really excited when I first heard
that I got the internship.

a7a805d0-cdb0-4349-a3f9-9d4eada7d161-0
00:00:19.660 --> 00:00:24.100
It really is an example of the whole
being more than the sum of its parts.

33575cb0-454a-46dc-92e2-791c6b32f7ab-0
00:00:24.180 --> 00:00:26.220
I would say it's a very diverse
experience.

4532cb35-2558-4af2-aecc-ee579591b677-0
00:00:26.420 --> 00:00:29.780
Soak up the expertise at HumRRO from all
the different folks has been really,

4532cb35-2558-4af2-aecc-ee579591b677-1
00:00:29.780 --> 00:00:30.340
really great.

c68b7519-f1ae-4142-a7dc-0688d5ee8f58-0
00:00:30.900 --> 00:00:33.351
The day-to-day tasks were just all really
enjoyable,

c68b7519-f1ae-4142-a7dc-0688d5ee8f58-1
00:00:33.351 --> 00:00:36.960
regardless of the project that I was
working on, specifically in the variety.

4fe2b5a6-904a-4e93-9eca-65720e207209-0
00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:40.214
So moving from a data analysis task,
you've been doing that for a few hours,

4fe2b5a6-904a-4e93-9eca-65720e207209-1
00:00:40.214 --> 00:00:41.440
you get a little tired of it.

a8e10434-1e2d-4f46-9032-f2731a7416fe-0
00:00:41.480 --> 00:00:43.800
You go into an item writing task,
you're a little tired of that.

baebda74-c75b-4746-8a61-071d35bdad68-0
00:00:43.800 --> 00:00:45.280
Then you start preparing for a workshop.

35f71754-d5f7-4d95-91bf-d091cc8c6192-0
00:00:45.520 --> 00:00:48.961
Working on various projects,
starting at different times on different

35f71754-d5f7-4d95-91bf-d091cc8c6192-1
00:00:48.961 --> 00:00:52.993
things and having that dynamic workload,
which is probably more realistic to what

35f71754-d5f7-4d95-91bf-d091cc8c6192-2
00:00:52.993 --> 00:00:56.090
it's like to be a full time I-O
professional, has been really,

35f71754-d5f7-4d95-91bf-d091cc8c6192-3
00:00:56.090 --> 00:00:57.320
really insightful for me.

a2427456-31bc-416e-921a-4c992cca4a7c-0
00:00:57.680 --> 00:01:02.599
I got the opportunity to work with a lot
of different people on a lot of different

a2427456-31bc-416e-921a-4c992cca4a7c-1
00:01:02.599 --> 00:01:07.280
tasks, both quantitative and qualitative,
so it was a really unique experience

a2427456-31bc-416e-921a-4c992cca4a7c-2
00:01:07.280 --> 00:01:12.200
getting that exposure to different types
of projects and different working styles.

2fd0ffb7-2770-46cf-b272-c292174a7721-0
00:01:12.440 --> 00:01:16.370
There has been such a wealth of knowledge
that I've been able to tap into from

2fd0ffb7-2770-46cf-b272-c292174a7721-1
00:01:16.370 --> 00:01:18.360
people who have been here 20 plus years.

897b33e5-347e-4553-b23c-653fdafd24e6-0
00:01:18.440 --> 00:01:22.117
From talking to different people,
from working with them on collaborating

897b33e5-347e-4553-b23c-653fdafd24e6-1
00:01:22.117 --> 00:01:24.900
them on projects,
I've learned that somewhere like this

897b33e5-347e-4553-b23c-653fdafd24e6-2
00:01:24.900 --> 00:01:29.025
that does research in an applied setting
that focuses on developing assessments in

897b33e5-347e-4553-b23c-653fdafd24e6-3
00:01:29.025 --> 00:01:32.852
the I-O space could be something I want
to do full time after my educational

897b33e5-347e-4553-b23c-653fdafd24e6-4
00:01:32.852 --> 00:01:33.200
career.

75428235-6358-45c4-929c-3419eb29fea5-0
00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:38.752
The work that is done here really does
inform policy and has the potential to

75428235-6358-45c4-929c-3419eb29fea5-1
00:01:38.752 --> 00:01:39.760
impact students.

ad8f0859-129a-4c56-acc3-cbd84d6fe0e5-0
00:01:39.880 --> 00:01:46.305
Knowing that I would be able to be a part
of some of the research activities going

ad8f0859-129a-4c56-acc3-cbd84d6fe0e5-1
00:01:46.305 --> 00:01:51.956
on here and being able to build my
network of researchers and experts in

ad8f0859-129a-4c56-acc3-cbd84d6fe0e5-2
00:01:51.956 --> 00:01:55.440
education,
psychometrics and I-O psychology.

ee07bfc2-f5a4-40dc-b77a-8b5b44ce6533-0
00:01:55.880 --> 00:01:58.320
So definitely lived up to my expectations.

ae4bd9fd-7795-4144-92e8-c214d8c9dd6b-0
00:01:58.720 --> 00:02:01.840
I got the chance to interact more
directly with clients.

21c2716d-be10-40c6-b4d6-b72e4a77d379-0
00:02:02.120 --> 00:02:06.215
I got the chance to contribute more to
data analysis than I have in other

21c2716d-be10-40c6-b4d6-b72e4a77d379-1
00:02:06.215 --> 00:02:06.880
internships.

f57e9e89-5f23-4f15-83c4-2f20bbebd635-0
00:02:06.880 --> 00:02:09.760
So it did really feel like I was part of
the team for the time that I was here.

38b6cafb-3b4b-4f67-b0a8-2eb9b7e1e5ad-0
00:02:10.200 --> 00:02:14.694
It's lived up in some ways and gone
beyond in others as far as the autonomy

38b6cafb-3b4b-4f67-b0a8-2eb9b7e1e5ad-1
00:02:14.694 --> 00:02:19.603
and responsibility I've got to experience
in terms of certain project work and the

38b6cafb-3b4b-4f67-b0a8-2eb9b7e1e5ad-2
00:02:19.603 --> 00:02:24.394
people I've got to meet and connect with.
You get to learn from people that have

38b6cafb-3b4b-4f67-b0a8-2eb9b7e1e5ad-3
00:02:24.394 --> 00:02:28.120
really been working on education and I-O
psychology for years.

b89a7279-a0d1-4ced-8502-5cbc59e2477e-0
00:02:28.120 --> 00:02:32.520
So learning from experts in the field has
been another really positive.

e9ce3793-57c8-4c87-8b47-a052b5bff253-0
00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:36.060
I'd absolutely recommend the HumRRO
internship,

e9ce3793-57c8-4c87-8b47-a052b5bff253-1
00:02:36.060 --> 00:02:39.320
and I would recommend it to pretty much
anyone.

5c9b285b-07e6-419a-9afb-d228a572827f-0
00:02:39.320 --> 00:02:42.360
People are really excited to show what
HumRRO is all about.

182313be-c30d-4614-9102-b14f65263579-0
00:02:42.600 --> 00:02:42.800


0c27eb56-867d-4375-9585-b5a7f6151d2d-0
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:45.407
So,
I would say go in with curiosity rather

0c27eb56-867d-4375-9585-b5a7f6151d2d-1
00:02:45.407 --> 00:02:46.000
than fear.
