Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Worked with Sales Operations Business partners and the wider UKI business, providing data analytics. My primary role focused on forecasting and reporting for sales teams; however, I also had the opportunity to work on a number of exciting projects which allowed me to work with a variety of stakeholders in the organisation.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I wasn’t treated as an ‘intern’ from day one, but instead was integrated into the team and treated as equal. My day to day tasks had a real impact on the team and overall business.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
I have become fluent in excel and developed my analytical skills massively. More importantly, I’d say my soft skills have improved significantly, from corporate etiquette to presenting. I feel the role has allowed me to become well rounded and gain an in depth knowledge of how a large tech company operates!
