Participate In Summer Saga Season 8 & Win Upto Rs. 15,000!
Hi, Tell us about how you got selected for this internship? Take us through the moment you realized you had got the internship.
Got selected through the placement process of our college. There was an initial CV shortlisting followed by several rounds of task submission and then a final interview.
On joining the company as an intern, how has your onboarding experience been like?
It was very smooth. The HR team made sure the interns had a good onboarding experience. The induction session was online. The project introduction and initiation was smooth.
How has your interaction with the team members and colleagues been like? How will you make sure to leave the best impression on your supervisors by the end of the internship?
Interaction with co-interns has been limited due to virtual nature of the internship. However the interaction between my manager has been very good and quite regular. They have been quite supportive. Carefully listening to what they expect from you, getting clarity about the deliverables, sensitizing the supervisors of your progress and challenges frequently and finally doing a great work at the job in hand are the way to leave a good impression on the boss
Tell us in brief, about the project you are currently working on and how is this project going to help the company?
The project is related to company's product diversification plan. The work involves understanding consumer behavior which includes secondary market research, primary research through interviews and surveys, and finally suggesting a product and a go to market strategy based on the insights from the research. The project will help the company to gain a deeper insights into the market and formulate the strategy accordingly.
