Site Ranking The Zone Club internship was a very enjoyable experience for me, as well as very beneficial. Through the internship, I was able to learn a great deal about myself, the college athletics industry, and facility management. I was also able to gain valuable management experience through working with student workers and being their superior. The knowledge I gained through this internship is very valuable to me. However, there were times that I was either doing nothing or doing mundane tasks that were not very beneficial to my growth. Because of this, I gave the internship an overall 4.
