The Role
I enjoyed my internship very much, it was very insightful and had a steep learning curve. For me it was a great opportunity to challenge myself and discover new things about myself. Meeting and interacting with senior people who cared about the internship experience and our careers as a whole, was exciting and made me enjoy my internship even more.
My managers and mentors were supportive, I met with some of them regulary to get feedback and advice on next steps. This was very helpful throughout the process.
I had projects to work on during my rotations, as well as tasks to support and work with my team on. This kept me busy, but also allowed for time to meet and interact with other desks.
The Company
The people were very nice and supportive, gave feedback and were very willing to teach and help you learn. They also encouraged you to push yourself and learn more. The general atmosphere was supportive, challenging, inspiring and quite fun as well.
