Work diary

Consider keeping a work diary as you go along. This will help you to remember what you’ve been up to if you’re later asked by your supervisor (or in a final interview) to reflect upon your experiences. However, do not forget about confidentiality. If you include confidential information in your work diary, then perhaps don’t take it outside the office and don’t keep hold of it after the internship. 

Alternatively, you could avoid noting down confidential information (e.g. client names and specific details about the matters) and include just enough information to jog your memory. On a similar note, when making a job application after completing an internship, never include confidential details of work completed elsewhere. This could call into question your ability to adhere to the required standards of confidentiality.
