Multimedia Intern

April - October 2018 • Palo Alto, CA

What I liked

Welcoming team, very supportive, 20% of time went towards personal growth within the company, free lunch.

What I wish was different

Arrived during time of large organizational shifts. My manager changed mid-internship and I didn't get along as well with my manager who was mainly HQ'ed in Germany.

Advice

Even as an intern, you're basically an employee. As an employee, you advocate for, and spearhead your own projects that you think is best valuable to the organization and yourself.

What I liked

I loved the internship program. There were amazing mentors to talk to and everyone was so incredibly willing to help you. They were genuinely happy to see you succeed.

What I wish was different

I wish my position had been one in which the work I did could have made a bigger impact. But I know that's incredibly difficult, being an intern for a major corporation like SAP.

If you're not satisfied with the work you're doing, make your own work. Don't be afraid to ask for help to grow.
