having worked in/working in
Hi all
I've got a question while writing my cover letter.

I worked in a company as an intern several months ago, which means I DO NOT WORK THERE ANYMORE.

Should I write like "Having worked in a company, I learned ~~" or "Working in a company, I learned~~"

I'm confused if "having worked in" means that I have still worked there" or "I had worked there but at the moment I don't work there anymore"
Thank you in advance.

Answer

"Having worked in a company, I learned ~~" may be the best of the sentences you wrote.

Answer

"Having worked in a company (during my internship), I learned..."
"Working in a company (during my internship), I learned..."

You can use either one, since they both refer to the past ("I learned").

Example: For two years I interned at a local company. Having worked in a company, I learned many valuable lessons.
