  • MS office (setting up meetings, accepting meetings, sending professional emails, and etc.), waking up early every day and commuting to work, team working, networking, brainstorming, presentation, researching, organization, technical, analytical skills. Thinking outside the box and getting challenged every day at work. Managed my time well with a balance of work, fitness, and outgoing lifestyle. Created discipline and habit of hard work.

    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
  • In the beginning, learning the business and culture in Honda was vital for me to grasp the philosophy so I wasn't given a lot of responsibility. Additionally, my department was very new at the time (3 months old when I joined) but then later on my skills started to really kick off, so started I handing more work & responsibility day by day as I showed my capability, potential, and intellectual curiosity throughout projects and meetings.
