Overview
On a day-to-day basis I will mainly spend most of my time doing the task that was allocated to me in agreement with the team on the weekly catch up meeting. I will assist any other member of the team if urgent tasks appear that require completion.
Skills
During my time here I have developed my communication and presentation skills massively. I have also developed my analytical and research skills whilst working on projects.
Responsibilities
One of the things I thoroughly enjoyed throughout my internship was that I was given responsibility to carry out several tasks. That really made me feel more welcome and I felt like my contribution was meaningful. Moreover I really appreciated that I was treated equally.
Support & Guidance
I have always received support and guidance when requested which was really helpful. I enjoyed the fact that we were allowed to explore and figure out ways to complete our tasks and if we struggled we can reach out to certain colleagues.
Culture
The company culture and general atmosphere throughout my internship was really friendly and engaging. Being a member of a diverse team have helped me settle in well as a foreigner from another country.
Your Impressions
I really enjoyed this whole journey. It was a pleasure and a lifetime experience working for such a big firm. I would be really keen to join the company when I graduate because the way the department works and the team environment is really engaging. Not only that but being involved with a variety of projects was really exciting and has enriched my knowledge.
Yes
Make sure you express your motivation to work for Arup and explain what can you bring to the firm with your experience.
