Overview
The experience involves the completion of an internship project under the guidance of a mentor, who is a member of the team that you're placed with. On a day-to-day basis, you will be involved in the team's routine activities (stand-up meetings, etc.), work on your project, and be given crash courses by your mentor on computer networking, the software stack and architecture on Cisco routers, and extra information relating to your project.
Skills
I was able to utilize my existing Python skills, and daily code reviews with my mentor helped me improve that.
Business Insight
Good stuff, I guess? My placement thought was with a role that I'm already somewhat familiar with, so...
Culture
Super friendly and chill, an excellent place! The town itself is really beautiful as well.
Your Impressions
