The Role
The people are really friendly and got to know the other interns very well. Got to work with cutting edge technology which are really popular in industry.
Everyone is very helpful and you can ask anyone for help.
I was given clear requirements for my project and given the contacts I would need to complete my project.
The project was quite technical but I was able to complete it well before time and also able to implement some nice to haves.
I was given root access to a server so guess that says it all. I was the only one working on my project and got to choose any programming languages or tools I would need to finish it.
I really like networking and system design and this internship has taught me a lot about that. I will be studying these modules next year at university and having built my project I feel I've already a lot about it.
The Company
Got to work on the trade floor which was very lively.
Learnt a lot from the the talks about finance. Really interesting talks about the new technology projects they are working on here.
Subsidised Canteen
The tech teams here are working on some cool projects with cutting edge technologies.
The Culture
Other interns were amazing. Had a great time with them.
