For cadets, hands-on professional experience doesn\u2019t have to wait until graduation. Tiziana Ortega,
\u201924, has already sampled gym administration, career education and supply chain management through three separate internships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ortega\u2019s first internship took place at the Ethos Athletic Club. \u201cOur main goal was having cheerful energy to welcome people to the gym,\u201d she said. Ortega chose this internship partly because one of the owners, Joey Welling, \u201909, is a Citadel graduate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI like to give back to people who helped me, and I can do that by helping others.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Because Ortega coordinated the internship through The Citadel Career Center, her real- world experiences also count as three credit hours. \u201cIt was a fun environment,\u201d she said, \u201cand I got to know what opening a business is like. The people are so driven, and they navigated the whole process in the middle of a pandemic.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ortega\u2019s next internship with the Career Center began in January. \u201cIt\u2019s a great community within that little house,\u201d she said, referring to the center\u2019s offices in former faculty housing across from Hagood Gate. \u201cI never saw it as an opportunity to work on campus until they reached out to me. Two weeks later, I had a fun job right after classes, helping other cadets write resumes, prepare for interviews and build LinkedIn profiles.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cadets often seek assistance during drop-in hours. \u201cI helped a lot of cadets during rank boards,\u201d Ortega said. \u201cGetting a thank-you text from classmates after helping them with their resume always makes me feel good.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The internship has also improved Ortega\u2019s own communication and networking skills. \u201cI\u2019m already planning my hours for the fall semester,\u201d she said. \u201cI\u2019m excited because I will have more opportunities to lead. I\u2019ll be contacting employers and helping them get set up on campus.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As she awaits the new academic year, Ortega is spending her summer in Charleston interning with Gnosis Freight. This logistics company develops software for tracking shipments in one suite. \u201cI like to give back to people who helped me, and I can do that by helping others,\u201d she said. \u201cI like to see everyone succeed.\u201d As a business administration major with a concentration in supply chain management, Ortega knows that helpfulness is a commodity that should be continuously delivered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
