    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • Day to day you get tasks assigned from your manager and over arching projects that run over the course of the 8 weeks. Typically lots of zoom calls with other members of your team as well as independent learning and working done within a day. There is an intern project that also is worked on that allows bonds to form with other interns in your department.

  • Increased my proficiency with tools like : Excel, Powerpoint, email. Developed my team working ability and taught me how to better manage my time, ensuring I was not taking on too many tasks. Learnt about the concepts of Agile work and got some experience with developing AI capabilities.

If you dont study HR try to think of any personal experiences you may have that could link into the role (ie. A role within a society you may do, or any job/ volunteer experience you may have)
