Instructional Design Intern

May - August 2018 • Detroit, MI

What I liked

During my internship, I was pushed out of my comfort zone. I was able to network and gain experience in a variety of different facets of the company.

What I wish was different

Honestly, I would not have changed anything about my experience.

Advice

For future interns, make sure that you be your own advocate. Your experience is all that you make of it so make yourself useful. Volunteer yourself for jobs or projects you wouldn't normally do. Lead team bondings, help other team members, and shadow other team members in different business areas.

Mortgage Banking Sales Development Intern

May - August 2018 • Detroit, MI

What I liked

I truly enjoyed everything about working at Quicken this summer. They have an amazing internship program where I was able to perform meaningful daily work that actually contributed to company revenue. I gained a unmeasurable amount of development of my professional and sales skills. I was able to network with high level professionals and learn from them. This internship has fully prepared me to start my career here. I truly enjoyed the amazing culture at Quicken and cannot wait to return.

What I wish was different

The internship at QL was so great that my only complaint is that I wish I had more time to do more here.

Advice

My advice would be to truly buy into the process and culture here. I tried for the first month of my internship to resist this but this is truly an amazing environment to be in that allows for major positive development both professionally and personally. Quicken Loans provides amazing training that I am so grateful for and is a place with amazing resources if you take advantage of them.

What I liked

Fun environment, they took us on tours of Detroit and different events

What I wish was different

I didn’t get a choice in what my internship focused on.

Advice

It’s so much fun and they really try to sell you the idea, they didn’t put me with a strong leader and I felt like I wasn’t making a big impact.

Strategy and Analytics Intern

April - September 2019 • Detroit, MI

What I liked

I gained very valuable experience working in an area that was directly related to my major and minor (Finance and Business Analytics). I also enjoyed working downtown Detroit where there are always things to do. The experience and overall environment at Quicken was amazing and led me to accepting a full time position that I work in currently.

What I wish was different

I wish I would have spent more time during my internship shadowing the different areas of business and learning more about the whole company rather than being so focused on my particular area. With a company as large as Quicken there are so many different areas to explore and it is important to branch out and see what business area might suit you best.

Advice

Definitely shadow as many different positions as possible and expand your network of contacts you can reach out to when you are eventually looking for a full time position. Also be sure to ask a lot of questions and take notes!

Business Consultant

May 2018 • Detroit, MI

What I liked

Very independent and able to take ownership of own work.

What I wish was different

Seems very fake as far as internships go. It's like they are putting on a show for interns and it's not really what work should be about.

Advice

Take full advantage of learning the business. Shadow every area and make it known what your goals are.

There’s is nothing that I wish was different. It was a great experience.

Mortgage Operations Intern

May 2018 • Detroit, MI

What I liked

I liked the experience gained at Quicken Loans. At the company, they treat interns just as they would team members, being involved with many high level projects and meetings. The internship is truly what you make of it, and you are allowed to utilize the tools offered to team members in any way that you would like to put your own ideas into action. Quicken Loans loves fresh eyes and is open to any sort of feedback that interns have to offer about the company or their processes.

What I wish was different

I do wish that interns were paid slightly higher and offered a small bank of PTO for those interns that are with the company for more than one or two intern seasons.

Advice

Interact. Make your mark wherever you can and do not be afraid to network and get your name out there by assisting with any tasks asked of you by your leader. This will get you noticed and increase your chances to gain a full time job with the company.

Intern

May - August 2019 • Cleveland, OH

What I liked

I loved how the internship allowed you to truly see what a career at Quicken is like. Also, super flexible. The company allows you to see what other roles within the site are like even if it’s outside the scope of your internship.

What I wish was different

I wish we were better prepared as far as expectations for the SAFE exam. We didn’t really know what to expect as far as how much studying and the level of difficulty that went into the exam. I also found ourselves to be bored every so often, so I wish our directors had more tasks or things for us to do that allowed us to expand our knowledge or get to know the company more.

Advice

The SAFE exam is no joke so be prepared! However, if you pass, it’s extremely rewarding & you’ll increase the likelihood of receiving an offer following the internship tremendously.
