Experience as an InternThe good thingsIts a huge lab, they receive samples from all over Malaysia and they run almost all the diagnostic tests, there was so much to learn. Most of the lab staffs were friendly and helpful. Many of them were willing to teach us (the interns), and some even let us have hands on experience which was great! The HoDs were nice as well, overall my internship was pleasant.
The challengesAs an intern I didn't get paid. I observed that most of the staffs had heavy workloads, they often worked till late. Salary wise, I heard its below average. The jobs are also shift based in 4 out of 5 departments so its quite a challenge if you're someone who prefers a 9 to 5 job.
