Overview
I was working remotely as a part of a team to maintain and improve capital one services. As an intern I worked on my own intern project with the help of a buddy and a mentor.
Skills
I have learnt loads of new skills. Coming into this role I was a student with no work experience e in a role like this. It was amazing for teaching me what it’s like and the skills that are required for the job. AWS, Git, Agile, Testing ……… etc
Responsibilities
Although I was mainly working on my intern project I was also given responsibility as they made me engineer of the sprint and I had to do daily checks and updates to containers. So there was enough that it felt manageable.
Support & Guidance
I was given lids of support. I have my mentor and buddy who were amazing with helping whenever but also 2 other grads who I was in a team with who also made they selves available. Everyone at Capital one is willing to help whenever and they are all so friendly!
Culture
As the job as remote the atmosphere was harder to judge, however they set up the remote working perfectly! Things get scheduled so you have a routine and you never feel like you are working alone. The culture is great because everyone is so nice and helpful !
Your Impressions
I enjoyed the placement loads!! Would be very excited if I get the opportunity to go back and work there!
Yes
Be yourself. If you are friendly and have the right attitude/ want your work to be done well you will fit right in.
