Week Four

Thursday I didn't attend my internship because of a doctor's appointment I had. However, I did attend on Tuesday. In the morning, Rick began to teach us a bit about presenting. Rohan and I presented for two minutes. Afterwards, we spoke with him individually about our strong suits and our weaknesses. I knew I was lucky to have Rick as a mentor, but that day I felt appreciative about what he does for us and the advice he gives us. Each Tuesday, from now, on we will be practicing our presentation skills. Then we were treated to speak with Kasim Aslam; he specializes in getting business's names in one of the first search results in Google. They have a certain algorithm in organizing how each site is ordered. Companies used to purposefully leave a blank space so they can leave keywords in the bottom and change the color of the text to the same one as the background like this so they would be able to pop up at the top. Kasim told us about his life and how became successful and own a company at a young age. If there was one thing we can take away from the whole experience, I would say the inspiration he provided us. Not only that, but the potential connection that was established. If I need help at anything related to his field or even if I knew someone who has a problem that he can help with, I know I can count on him.

Right now, I will be relaxing on my break with my relatives.
