In summary, the most integral part of the role is to assist the NonStop Director in the forecasting process to model expected orders and revenue per quarter and provide consistent updates on the status of each deal per Geographic region and within this to track the shipping status of these systems.

Yes, I have been given a whole host of responsibility throughout the internship, I wasn't thrown in at the end to be specific but I worked closely with experts to develop which led to my exposure to senior tasks and led to the enhanced responsibility I have seen in the role. The more I got to grips with the role the more I noticed that I had a real natural ability to follow what was going on, particularly in the forecasts which as since seen me presenting our calls to Worldwide to present the quarterly nonstop forecasts. Also, my involvement in the shipping process has seen me now become the direct point of contact for nay shipping queries.

A strong mix of both for sure.
Key skills required for the role before I applied were:
· Effective Teamwork Skills
· Ability to learn quickly
· Accuracy and attention to detail
· Good use of Word, PowerPoint and Excel
· Ability to work independently
· Excellent communication skills
· Outgoing Personality
The exposure you get in this role significantly develop all of the existing skills I had already had which got me the job in the first place, but I have since gained an array of new skills also which I have developed and articulated to optimise my performance within the role - these come as a result of being in the day to day environment and evaluating best practices.

Throughout my internship I have received a whole host of support and guidance. First of all, within my team, my boss arranges daily calls with the team and weekly 1:1s with myself, this allows me to pose any questions, concerns or guidance necessary at any stage and allows us to keep on top of my progress. Secondly, the early careers team align us mentors and consistently check un to ensure we are all developing and getting on ok, this allows myself to always feel at ease and know where to go if I ever have any questions.

HPE is renowned for its company culture and I can completely see why. First of all, coming into a company as an intern you think that you don't have the authority to book time in with senior managers, this is completely not the case, we are encouraged to do so and to try and make a difference in the company and feel incredibly empowered to do so. Additionally, the amount of awareness campaigns there are create an endless opportunity for involvement, a really important aspect to meeting new people, particularly in the current climate.

I have thoroughly enjoyed the placement, as a very competitive individual I have incredibly enjoyed the challenges of coming into a big corporate company, enhancing your personal brand and working to make a difference. I feel the experience has significantly shaped my future prospects with the organisation and I am as hungry as ever to come back to the company and leave a legacy. From the team to the culture to the day to day tasks, I have enjoyed every aspect.
