2022 Alta Intern

A few things I enjoyed most about my internship was the people I worked with, the Alta culture, and the customizable internship projects I was able to work on throughout the summer.

I would definitely recommend the Alta Dairy Business Internship to anyone looking to get into not just genetics and reproduction, but also consultation. Alta taught me how to ask the right questions, handle conversations with dairymen, and overall, how to be a quality consultant. This internship gives you the opportunity to learn a great deal and make valuable connections within the industry.

2022 Alta Intern

Throughout my internship, I was able to focus on learning about and promoting Alta COW WATCH to dairies in Texas on my own. Additionally, I was able to gain a better understanding of the approach Alta takes when it comes to sales and consulting.

I would recommend the Alta Dairy Business Internship to someone that is self-motivated and wants to push themselves to learn new things. If you have the drive, you will get a lot out of your experience like I did.
