That did not get me any good jobs however, so don't talk about that!
The person goes on and says that during her college years, she came "interested in software development, especially software that would help consumers."
The people that buy the software are consumers. Notice here, she's giving a little more specific information about why she is interested in this particular specialization.
She says, "That's why I applied for and completed a one-year internship at Lotadoe Industries."
Many times, in American colleges, people work while they're in college, often during the summertime but sometimes part-time during their last two years or one of their last two years in an internship, "internship."
An internship is when you work for a company as a trainee-as someone who is learning how to do something.
The internship is also an example of an accomplishment-something that the person did that shows that they are able to out and get things done.
"At Lotadoe" Industries, she says, she "learned how to formulate new ideas for software and how to communicate those ideas effectively to the rest of the development team."
She doesn't j ust tell the person where she worked in this internship, she says what she did and, in particular, she gives them an example of an accomplishment at that job-things that she learned at that job.
The thing that she learned, in part, was "to formulate new ideas."To formulate, "formulate," means to come up with-to think of-to invent new ideas.
So, she says she "learned how to formulate new ideas and how to communicate those" or tell those "effectively to the rest of the development team."
Effectively, "effectively," means the same as quickly and thoroughly-to do something with the most amount of efficiency.
