    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • Preparing reports for the executive office, and getting involved with a variety of projects. The projects take up most of my time, but I had a lot of freedom in selecting them and choosing which ones I would like to get involved with or not.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • Improved a lot in working with data and following not only intuition but also having the insights to support my points. Besides that, improved my ability to work independently and be confident in the accuracy of my work.

    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?

    Culture

  • 5. What was the company culture and general atmosphere like?
  • Extremely open and aware of the real world. I believe SAP to be one of the most advanced cultures in terms of being in line with the current realities in the world, and moreover SAP doesn't seem to be afraid of having those open conversations.

    Your Impressions

  • 6. To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?
  • I believe the only downside to my placement was one that couldn't have been controlled, meaning the effects of the pandemic. SAP has done an excellent job in trying to reach out to its employees, learning from several projects launched to bring people together in these uncertain times.

  • Be yourself and come in with an open mind. There are tons of opportunities left and right within the business, and as long as you are open about what you would like to get out of the experience and can mention clear directions, you will be happy.
