<p>Hey Aibarr,</p>
<p>The places I've worked for are more similar to places like the deparment of transportation than Sandia. Would this experience be looked down upon by private companies? I heard that once you have a few government work terms no private companies will go near you. I was even considering not putting one of my work terms on my resume.</p>
<p>It's not looked down upon, particularly if you're young. They know that jobs are tough to get when you have no experience, and your experience in government will help you know what to expect when you deal with government agencies later. Companies understand that, and they like people who are a little savvy to what they're going to deal with when they work with a DOT or something.</p>
<p>That, plus it's about the same amount of experience you'd get if you had an internship somewhere else, just a different kind of experience. You'll be fine.</p>
