Overview
Working on updating the internal tools of the company through a project. Learing new methodologies and practicing them daily.
Skills
Developed in teamwork, communication, confidence, research, programming. Learned pipelining via Azure Devops.
Responsibilities
Had to eventually manage a project by myself as well as deligate work to colleagues.
Support & Guidance
Received support via daily, weekly and monthly check-ins. In terms of workload, encouraged to research tasks thoroughly before asking for support.
Culture
Hard to comment on socialability due to covid meaning any social events were cancelled. Staff on site were not very diverse and therefore all followed a similar culture which wasn't in tune with my own all the time.
Your Impressions
Very much enjoyed my project, although it lasted very long. Would have benefitted from more employees of my age group / demographic in order to feel more included / fit in with the culture.
Yes
Find a site with a diverse array of minds and personalities.
