How to: switching departments after internship?
Post Body

I'm currently more than halfway finished with my summer internship and I'm pretty confident (and have reason to believe) that I'll be offered to stay afterwards, however I, while working on the team I'm on (ops) is great, I think I'll be way better at and would enjoy working on another team (mobile.)

I've shadowed the mobile team and feel like I'd fit in great there. I've talked to the manager and have even been invited to presentations they give to other teams. They were really receptive of having someone new on their team.

How do I transition into a role on that team instead of staying in the one I'm at? How do I bring it up with my manager?

Has anyone done this before? How'd it go?
