My internship at Capgemini is worth cherishing for more reasons than one. Capgemini’s Summer Internship Programme , ‘Chrysalis’ is a highly-structured program to capture the best minds and zealous students from leading B-schools in India. Among the 80 interns selected for various portfolios, I was selected as an HR Intern from MHRM, IIT Kharagpur for ‘Chrysalis 2018’. My engagement with Capgemini began a month before my joining. I was informed of my project and my responsibility beforehand so that I could prepare myself accordingly. I was equally excited about Bangalore being my joining location. Timely communications smoothened our internship journey right from the beginning. A 2-day Induction programme, which began on 2nd April 2018 was held for all the interns through a VC from their respective locations. I got to interact with 15 other interns from various B-Schools during this time in the Bangalore Office. Through the Induction Programme, we were given an introduction to the company and its numerous verticals to give us a holistic view of the business. Top leaders from Finance, Marketing and HR engaged with us and laid out the expectations of us in the 2 eventful months at Capgemini. The leaders were patient and forthright when we asked our doubts. Moreover, each intern was assigned a buddy and a mentor to assist and guide us throughout our internship. We were also briefed about the key milestones ranging from the First Dipstick ( a feedback on the internship journey) to the Final Panel Assessment. And so I was all set to begin! I interned with the Leadership Hiring Team at Capgemini. My project was based on how Analytics could influence Talent Acquisition for Leadership Hiring. A point worth noting is that the projects assigned to every intern were Live Business Challenges so that we could help develop fruitful solutions for the organization. My project required a clear understanding of HR Analytics. Since this was a new and emerging area in HR, I found the project very interesting and hoped to learn a lot while I worked on it. My mentor guided me throughout the project and encouraged me to think outside of the box. I could easily approach him in case of any challenges or any new ideas. This gave a boost to my confidence and helped me work in the right direction. With the zeal to utilize every opportunity that came my way in such a big organization, I did not hesitate to interact with other team members, managers, senior managers and never said ‘NO’ to any task assigned to me. Internship at Capgemini was an amazing 2 months for me. It was coupled with great learning, good interactions and a lot of fun. The key takeaways for future interns would be:
