“Through this internship, I learned how to work professionally with customers while learning about all of our products and how to communicate effectively and knowledgeably about them.”

This summer I was a sales intern at Capital City Millwork. I worked with walk-in customers at the front counter and answered calls for the sales department. I wrote up sales orders, purchase orders, and quotes for customers on our various different products – stock mouldings, exterior & interior doors, stair parts, hardware, and other custom millwork. I worked back and forth with our suppliers to order in products that we didn’t stock and get pricing for customers. I went on visits to several of our commercial and industrial sites to see and understand where our company comes into play in ordering and delivering our supplies on these big projects. Through this internship I learned how to work professionally with customers and meet their needs. I also learned about all of our products in detail and was able to communicate effectively and knowledgeably about them to our customers.
