The bunch of interns was as diverse at it could be with students from IIMB, IIFT, XIMB, SIBM, TAPMI and NMIMS. We would frequently make plans to go for outings during weekends and discuss about it throughout the week only to end up cancelling them and start with a new plan on the subsequent Monday. However, we never missed out on a chance to go outside for tea every evening while enjoying the awesome Bangalore weather. The various engagement programs for interns like “Selfie with Mentor” and “Online Quiz” would often come as a surprise between regular work schedules.
An internship at Capgemini is a balanced mix of learning, hands-on experience and networking. I was given an opportunity to explore my capabilities and potential to bring out innovative ideas, while at the same time, guided by a mentor at each and every step whenever needed. One of the best thing I experienced in Capgemini is the accessibility to the senior management and leadership team. We could reach out to anyone in the hierarchy without even worrying about protocols. Our Vice President for the Infra group would often go to employees and have a small talk informally.
As I look back to those days, I realize that we hardly get a chance to be an employee as well as a student at the same time. This is possible only in summer internship. It’s a perfect blend of work pressure, deadlines, enjoyment, party and cossetting.
In short, “A must have and unforgettable experience !”.
