Overview
During the placement my day to day varied from having daily scrum engagements with the customer during a sprint, to developing a solution alongside my college. When a sprint wasn't ongoing I would be learning the cloud tools available to see if they could be used in future engagements.
Skills
One of the major skills I learnt during the placement was the ability to apply design thinking principles to ideate a solution with a customer, this gave a lot of value to the customers while making sure we identified the right pain point. I also learnt a whole suite of cloud tools.
Responsibilities
I was given near autonomy to do whatever I felt best for the customer, giving my own advice on what I learnt and becoming a small consultant for them. Furthermore I was able to learn what I wanted and given support for that.
Support & Guidance
I was given a lot of guidance at the start however if I needed help with anything I had to reach out to people I didn't know.
Culture
Oracle is a growing tech company supporting a diverse workforce, supporting those who lie under the BAME, LGBTQA+, Neurodivergent and more banners. They have dedicated ERG's who make an impact within the company and customers.
Your Impressions
I had an amazing internship and wished that I could've stayed on as I loved my job, my colleagues and the ability to expand my knowledge within Oracle. I wish I could've met my co-workers as lockdown was in effect most of the placement.
Yes
Showcase your own unique strengths, your love for tech as well as your own weaknesses as Oracle is there to help you become your best self.
