I'm interning at a rx firm and didn't really know a whole lot coming in and had major imposter syndrome. The firm I'm at has really poor training to interns and kind of just expect you to learn as you go. I'm scared my first half work was judged poorly and now near the end of the internship I've turned it around a little as I've learned the process. Do y'all have any advice?

You’re an intern. No one expects you to know anything and if you were able to pick stuff up you met the expectation.

As an intern they expect that you’re not going to know much, and with any field there’s always a huge learning curve in the beginning. As long as you showed you’re asking questions and making an active effort, that’s all they’re really looking for.

In regards to advice, I’d say just be transparent and always ask for feedback on how you’re performing and what you can do better. Showing initiative is always looked upon well, and I was given this advice as an intern.
