Overview
During my time with the company, our team worked on several projects across the country, I worked closely with my team to produce drawings and a report for each. We generally worked remotely and would communicate regularly over teams.
Skills
I have learned to use MicroStation and ProjectWise, both of which are industry standard software. I had no familiarity with either before the internship and have since become competent at producing CAD drawings in MicroStation. I have also developed soft skills such as communicating with a team, managing my time across different tasks and critical thinking. I am now familiar with engineering work flows and processes.
Responsibilities
I was only given responsibility over relatively minor tasks
Support & Guidance
I received plenty of support and guidance, my team were always available to help me if needed and were very good at explaining any task given to me. They were always approachable if I had any issues.
Culture
The company culture and atmosphere was excellent, I would definitely work for Arcadis in the future. The staff are all friendly and the office gives good vibes.
Your Impressions
I enjoyed my internship throughout and found that the time passed very quickly.
Yes
The interview is the most important part of selection, make sure you come across interested and motivated.
