Goodbye, safe trip home (Session B)
Published on 2015-08-28
CCIP says a heartfelt goodbye and good luck to its departing 2015 participants. As the interns leave New York, all of them more accomplished and experienced than when they arrived, there is an air of bittersweet happiness that comes with their departure.
"The most unexpected surprise about this internship is that, apart from professional improvement, I also made a lot of friends, including my colleagues and other participants. Though the internship has ended, our friendship definitely remains," said Thomas, a student from HKUST.
The program is happy that the participants both enjoyed the cultural flair of New York and also learned a great deal from their internships.
Constance, an MUST student, commented, "This experience not only increased my understanding of the operation of SMEs, but it also gave me the opportunity to experience American culture. I will absolutely cherish the memories of this colorful and meaningful summer."
Besides being a valuable source of wonderful memories, CCIP 2015 also helped prepare participants for the future, whether it was through learning how to focus one's interests into a suitable, professional position or how to navigate the always more-globalized world economy.
Ningning, a CUHK student, added, "Although the whole internship experience is mixed with laughter and tears, I firmly believe that 'no pains, no gains.' I'll bear in mind the can-do spirit of CCIP in the future."
Besides professional connections, CCIP 2015 participants also had meaningful personal connections with their internship colleagues.
Michael, a HKU student, elaborated on this point: "It's sad to say goodbye to my supervisors as well as my colleagues. Every journey has an ending, yet every ending is another beginning. I'll bear in mind my supervisor's motto: 'Live as if you were to die tomorrow; learn as if you were to live forever.'"
But, as 2015 comes to a close, CCIP is already preparing for its 2016 program. Applications will begin being accepted on October 15, and CCIP is already arranging a meaningful, informative recruitment process.
Claudia, a HSMC student and 2015 participant, is already planning to be involved with the 2016 recruitment. She said, "I hope more promising students will join the big family of CCIP, to realize their dreams. I am really looking forward to the recruitment work this fall. I'll definitely help then."
