Overview
Starting the day with daily stand up meetings, we would review incoming tickets, and sort them by priority before assigning them. I worked with another intern on one project the whole internship, which involved upgrading a library used in lots of company software.
Skills
I strongly developed my C++ skills. I learnt how to work in an agile way with a team. I learnt how to use tools like Jira, Jenkins, Github, and Visual Studio in order to collaborate effectively and streamline the development process.

Polish mathematical skills, as the interview questions were not necessarily all programming focused.
