Overall internship experience:
If i had to describe my stint at Capgemini , it would be 'enriching'. Although virtual, my team left no stone unturned so as to provide a fulfilling experience. The virtual onboarding of all the Chrysalis interns was conducted across a span of 2 days, we were acquainted with the Capgemini's core values, business verticals.
I was inducted in Capgemini's Insurance practice and received two projects to on work on. My projects were based on product offering innovation in the Health insurance space primarily keeping pandemics in focus while the second one dealt with understanding the current scenario in US,UK's Life and pensions business and suggesting solutions to enhance the same. I had to undertake a thorough research, benchmarking approach to understand the current offerings and suggest. My first project was very much relevant due to the current pandemic situation and i learnt a lot while ideating. For the second project i understood the complete customer journey and identified the pitfalls.Amidst the internship i took up a 'Design Thinking' course so as to implement it in my project.
Throughout the internship, my ideas, suggestions were constantly being validated by my mentor. Capgemini's open work culture helped me reach out to many stakeholder's and understand their perspectives. Towards the end of my internship, i had the opportunity to present my ideas to the leadership of Insurance practice and they appreciated my efforts.
