Celebrating Failure (26A)


1. During this semester I failed in getting an internship at my top interest company: Texas Instruments

2. What I learned from this is just getting used to being denied on opportunities, and to learn to accept the outcome, even if it is something you really want. I felt pretty good when sending my resume, and going through that process, but it just wasn’t meant to be.

3. In terms of the failure, I really believe I just need to be continually improving to become the applicant they want and for any employer. Whether that be with technical skills, people skills, and knowledge in general. I use failure as a source of motivation for myself as I like to be challenged and enjoy trying to prove myself to become the ideal person, and for a job, the ideal candidate. This class has taught me to take more risks, get a little uncomfortable and to just talk to people. I feel more comfortable just approaching people in general because of this class.
