I got a dream internship of mine and I’ve been really excited to start. Today was the first day and it went OK. So far I am the only summer intern who’s started so I was just working with a bunch of others who have been there for a while.
Even though I know it’s my first day so I’m not expected to know much, I still felt so dumb and inexperienced 🙁 I made a couple errors – no harm done – but I felt so insecure after and now I’m questioning if this is even right for me. Not like I would turn back now, but I do just feel really insecure/silly. Again it’s the first day so it’s not like I’m supposed to know EVERYTHING but ugh I just hate first days in general. They stress me out learning so much in one day and being worried that I have to know it all immediately.
Is this normal? I’m already having anxiety about going back lol. My boss is a very serious which doesn’t help a lot but everyone else was pretty nice.
