SL Tip #9: planning & doing tasks

Estimate TIME to complete tasks. Be REALISTIC and then ADD 20%.
ASK to extend deadlines or remove things from your plate.
- Silver Lining

if you are considering an internship with us, you will be exposed to the basic elements of project management. a mnemonic (that is sort of an abbreviation/acronym) that is often used in project management is SMART ...
  • Specific
  • Measurable
  • Achievable (or appropriate, or action-oriented)
  • Relevant (or realistic, or results-oriented)
  • Time-related
and this relates to SL tip #8 - prioritizing. be prepared. be enthusiastic. be smart.
