Advice after being fired from an internship. 😞

I recently got fired from an HR internship, and I want to share my experience. I’m feeling heartbroken, confused, and like I’ve made too many mistakes. I come from a humble background with no prior corporate experience. When I was given a work laptop, I transferred documents to my personal computer just because I found it more comfortable. I didn’t realize that was a breach of policy. I also sent emails using my personal account instead of my work one by mistake, which led to more issues. I honestly didn’t know these things weren’t allowed, and nobody clearly communicated the rules to me. I also wasn’t aware that my work was being monitored through Microsoft Teams. The feedback I got was that I lacked "soft skills," and I’m trying to understand what I could’ve done differently. It’s hard to admit, but I feel dumb for not knowing these things. It’s a blow to my confidence, but I’m trying to stay positive. My question for those who have been through similar experiences: How do you bounce back from mistakes like this and learn to navigate the corporate world better? 💬 #CareerGrowth #LearningFromMistakes #InternshipJourney #GrowthMindset #CorporateLife #JobCareer #Career
