The amount of responsibility and ownership given to each intern made us feel like a part of the Ultratech family. For me, the best part of my internship in Ultratech was the continuous feedback I got from my manager and other senior colleagues. The amount of knowledge transfer I had from my seniors especially the feedbacks from Mr. SV Patil sir taught me something which I can never find in books. The environment in the organization is best for a person who wants to learn, I was always encouraged by my seniors to interact and learn from my peers and colleagues. During my stint, I got the helping hands of so many people from various departments, which I could never imagine at any other organization. People would literally stop their own work to help me out.
After all those long working days for 2 months finally came the day of my final review presentation. To be able to put across all our ideas in the stipulated time frame, we all made small presentations. But to our surprise, all 6 of us interns working in the same department gave presentations for 1.5 hours each. It was more like a detailed discussion with the top-level management. The Department head and our assigned mentor critically questioned each of our ideas for the 6 long hours. My biggest achievement out of this internship would be some ideas of mine which the project head, asked his team to implement giving a sense of satisfaction to me.
Through these 2 months of experience, I have realized that at this very moment in India, Cement Industry is the most challenging industry to work in. The extent of unpredictability that is present currently due to several recent activities has made this industry the best one for any newcomer who is enthusiastic about learning. Also, the rare opportunity I got to work in a project which is related to both Sales and Marketing domain and Operations domain, has given me the exposure which any intern dreams of.
