Making the Most Out of an 8 Hour Workday

Week four of my first rotation and things have really been picking up. It takes a few weeks to get to know the project, the team, the deliverables and where you "fit in."

To give you some insight into my daily work, I've uploaded a screenshot of my schedule.

Looking at my schedule, you may say, "Maurice, you're crazy!" But I'm okay with it. The way things work on IMLP is that you are given a project with accelerated deadlines- which does account for more meetings in a day, but you also accomplish more in a shorter period of time.

Do I see this as a bad thing? Absolutely not. Most of these meetings are requirements gathering which involve 12+ people on a call deeply involved in some pretty intense discussion. This just shows the high level of involvement I have from the beginning of my six-month rotation.
