Overview
Worked on Internship project, culminating in a presentation at the end of the project. Assisted with BAU in my team. Networked with others to further understand the company.
Skills
SQL - never had used. Developed Excel skills too.
Responsibilities
I had complete autonomy over my project. I was able to choose how I spent my time.
Support & Guidance
Was able to contact my manager for support who proved very helpful when needed. Was also able to reach out to anyone in the company for chats or support which was excellent.
Culture
The culture at AMEX is amazing. The team focus means that everyone is happy to support which massively boosts productivity. Networking is actively encouraged so you can reach out to anyone. I think this is arguably the company's greatest asset.
Your Impressions
My internship wildly exceeded my expectations. I felt like I fitted in, felt comfortable to ask for help, and developed my skillsset.
Yes
To fully showcase your personality throughout the process. Don't be afraid to ask for support. Put in the work as you get out what you put in.
