Playing In Unilever's World - An IT Intern's Experience

Being someone who hasn't worked before, this gave me an opportunity to work on the latest technology. collaborate with various vendors and work with a bunch of enthusiastic, smart, encouraging and pleasant people. They gave me complete freedom to approach the project, however, I deemed fit and take responsibility for it while ensuring that they were always there to help if I needed guidance and inputs. The fact that I did a part of my internship at the Global Headquarters at London is the icing on the cake. 

Definitely, this internship has not been just about the work. As it inches closer towards completion, I realise it's about the experience – multiple layers of learning, improving, evaluating myself, meeting new people and I would not be pardoned if don't mention this, exploring the beautiful place that the United Kingdom is. I was lucky enough to work looking at the London Eye from the London Head Office, immerse myself in the countryside while working from the Leatherhead office and enjoy the rather quiet office at Kingston. 

How this is going to culminate is yet to be known, but the Unilever Leaders Internship Program (ULIP '18) certainly has let me play in their world and presented me with a memorable summer.
