The Role
The workplace was very nice. I was working with the interpreting team and the girls were fantastic.
I felt straight away a member of the team. From the very beginning I was given projects to handle and step by step I was guided through the most difficult ones
My mentor and manager were always there to support me and to make sure that I was given all the support and the necessary knowledge to handle correctly my projects.
For sure you are never bored. There are many things to do and you always have to be ready for new projects. The workload is manageable and when it was too much I could always count on my colleague.
From the very beginning I was given my projects to handle and step by step I was given more challenging assignments.
I learned a lot during my internship. Prioritize and multitasking were essential. For sure I will treasure all I was though and I am confident this will help me in my future career.
The Company
