HR and Marketing

My name is Krysta Kivela and I’m a psychology major at Cal State University of Long Beach. During my time as an HR intern, I worked on so many interesting and relevant HR projects. One that really sticks out to me was a collaborative project where me and another intern researched all the relevant HR laws and regulations and state-specific laws we would need to be familiar with before entering the workforce.

We created a large presentation and included audio to our slides to make it more engaging and easier to digest. I believe this is a reference I will be using moving forward in my HR career.

The advice I would give to other interns is to take as many opportunities as you can because you never know what may spark your interest.

It is a great way to figure out what things make you excited and driven and what things aren’t a good fit for you. And don’t forget, you make the most out of your internship!
