“My internship at Coastal combined to give me experience in both the Credit Support department as well as the Finance department. I was able to get hands-on experience in a bank and grasp a better understanding of the different sectors that make up daily functions.”
“During my internship at Coastal, I was able to create a vast professional network with employees and gained invaluable customer service skills while gaining experience on the front line as a Teller and behind the scenes as a Finance intern.”
“Professionalism is one of the most significant skills I have taken from my time at Coastal. I am currently studying to be an English teacher, so I spend a lot of time observing classrooms or teaching short lessons. Professionalism is essential in this setting, especially as a college student working in a high school classroom. It is important to follow through on tasks, be adaptable, and create intentional relationships. Through my internship at Coastal, I had the opportunity to learn and work on these attributes every day.”
“My internship at Coastal coincided with when I changed my major at Gonzaga; the knowledge and experience I was able to get with the underwriting process helped me feel more comfortable with the choice I made for my degree and helped me when starting my career in accounting.”
“By getting to intern at Coastal, I was able to see what working at a Community Bank was truly like. This helped me feel comfortable in my decision to accept a position as a credit analyst out of college because I developed the skills needed to start my career with a strong foundation in a banking environment. The projects I was given in my summer at Coastal all had a purpose and have helped me already in the past year of working as an analyst.”
