Beyond my core role, I was given the opportunity to lead and contribute to impactful projects.

I also engaged in intern collaboration initiatives, networking events, and Siemens-wide projects that required me to work with colleagues from diverse backgrounds. These opportunities not only broadened my skill set but also gave me responsibility for representing Siemens’ values in a professional capacity.

Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
Equally important were the soft skills I developed throughout the year. Through project work, presentations, and cross-team collaboration, I enhanced my communication, presentation, teamwork, and problem-solving skills. Being part of projects such as the LinkedIn Brand Ambassador Pilot Programme also helped me build confidence in data storytelling and presenting results to senior stakeholders.
Overall, my internship gave me a well-rounded mix of technical expertise and professional skills that I can carry forward into my final year of studies and future career
