Hey everyone,

I’m currently going through the recruiting process for Walmart’s Summer 2027 Load Logistics Manager (Transportation) internship, specifically at the Grove City, Ohio location.

I wanted to see if anyone here has completed this internship or something similar within Walmart’s supply chain or transportation division.

I’m particularly curious about a few things:

1. Interview process: What was the interview like? Were the questions mostly behavioral, or did they ask technical questions related to logistics and supply chain management?

2. Day-to-day experience: What does a typical day look like for a Load Logistics Manager intern? Are you mostly working with data, shadowing managers, or getting hands-on experience with transportation operations?

3. Final project: I’ve heard that interns are assigned an individual project and have to give a final presentation. How complex are these projects? What kinds of topics do interns typically work on, and who do they present their findings to?

4. Overall experience: How was the work environment, especially at the Ohio location? Did you feel supported throughout the internship?

I’m currently pursuing my bachelor’s in Supply Chain Management and already have experience working in a Walmart distribution center, but this would be my first corporate/management-focused internship.

Any insight or advice would be greatly appreciated, especially regarding the interview and final presentation. Thanks!

I’m a 27-year-old Black man. About three years ago, a therapist told me I had what they considered textbook signs of ADHD, but I never got formally diagnosed.

I’m trying to join the military reserves, so I’ve been putting off getting evaluated because I’m worried it could complicate things. I’m also honestly scared of medication. I’ve read both positive and negative experiences, and the idea of taking something that changes how my brain works makes me nervous.

I still live at home with my father. I work, come home, and spend most of my free time in bed or scrolling on my phone. I struggle to stay awake during the day, and even things I genuinely want to do—like lose weight, finish my software engineering degree, learn music production, or improve my life—feel almost impossible to stay consistent with.

People see laziness. It doesn’t feel like laziness to me. It feels like I want to do these things, but I can’t seem to make myself do them consistently.

I haven’t really told anyone what I’ve been struggling with. Part of it is being afraid people will treat me differently, and part of it is the stigma around mental health that I grew up seeing in Black culture. Growing up, both my parents called me lazy, and sometimes I was physically punished because they thought I just wasn’t trying hard enough. Even now, my dad still gets on me about my room, and I know from his perspective it probably looks like I’m just not trying.

I don’t really have a social life, and I’m not dating because I’m trying to get out of credit card debt and get my life together. My mom and siblings constantly ask why I’m not dating. At times they’ve even wondered if I’m gay and just afraid to come out. I have no issue with gay people, but that’s not the case. The truth is I don’t feel financially or mentally in a place where I can be a good partner. Sometimes it feels like there’s an expectation that, especially as a Black man, you’re supposed to have it all together—to be successful, independent, dating, confident, and constantly “on.” I don’t feel like I measure up to that right now.

I’m honestly scared I’m going to wake up at 35 and still be living the exact same life if I don’t figure out what’s going on.

I’m not looking for Reddit to diagnose me. I’m just wondering if anyone who was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult can relate to this, what finally made you get evaluated, and whether medication actually helped or if there were other things that made a big difference.

I’m a 27-year-old Black man. About three years ago, a therapist told me I had what they considered textbook signs of ADHD and recommended I get evaluated. I never did.

Part of the reason is that I’m trying to join the military reserves, and I’m worried a diagnosis could complicate that process. Another reason is that I’m honestly scared of medication. I’ve read both good and bad experiences, and the idea of taking something that changes how my brain works makes me nervous.

For years I’ve felt like my life has been stuck. I still live at home with my father. I go to work, come home, and spend most of my free time in bed or scrolling on my phone. I struggle to stay awake during the day, and even things I genuinely want to do—losing weight, finishing my software engineering degree, learning music production, cleaning my room, or just getting my life together—feel incredibly hard to stay consistent with.

I haven’t told anyone what I’m struggling with. Mental health wasn’t really talked about where I grew up, and I worry people will see me differently. Growing up, my parents called me lazy, and sometimes I was physically punished because they thought I just wasn’t trying hard enough. Even now, my dad still gets on me about my room.

I also don’t really have a social life. I’m not dating because I’m trying to get out of credit card debt and become financially stable. My mom and siblings ask why I’m not dating, and they’ve even wondered if I’m gay and afraid to come out. I have no issue with gay people, but that’s not the case. I just don’t feel mentally or financially ready to be in a relationship. Sometimes it feels like there’s a lot of pressure, especially as a Black man, to have everything together—to be successful, independent, confident, and dating. Right now I don’t feel like I measure up to that.

My biggest fear is waking up at 35 and realizing I’m still living the exact same life.

I’m not asking anyone to tell me whether I have ADHD or to diagnose me. I’m just interested in hearing from people who were diagnosed as adults. Did you spend years feeling stuck like this before getting evaluated? What helped you take that step, and if medication ended up being part of your treatment, what was that experience actually like?

Hello I’m 27 and have worked in warehousing since i was 18 and want to pivot into the creative technologist space. I’m currently getting my BS IN software engineering from WGU. I’m coming into this space as a complete beginner but would like to know any tips or courses i can take to help me understand the role better. It seems like it can be fun but challenging career, I’m just not sure on how to break in. Thanks in advance.

I’m currently pursuing the B.S. in Software Engineering at WGU, but I’m trying to keep my career options open.

The degree includes certifications like:

* AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner

* CompTIA Project+

* ITIL Foundation

My original goal is to become a software engineer, but given how competitive the entry-level market is, I’m wondering if I should also apply for entry-level project management roles (Project Coordinator, Associate Project Manager, Junior PM, etc.).

I don’t have direct project management experience, but I do have professional work experience in operations and leadership, and I’ll have the certifications above by the time I graduate.

My questions are:

* Would employers consider someone with a Software Engineering degree for entry-level project management roles?

* Do AWS Cloud Practitioner, Project+, and ITIL Foundation actually help when applying for those jobs?

* Is it realistic to break into project management without prior PM experience, or should I focus solely on software engineering first?

* If you were in my position, would you apply to both software engineering and project management roles, or would that spread me too thin?

I’d appreciate any advice from people who have made a similar transition or who hire for either field.
