Operations and Product Development Intern

May - August 2019 • Hong Kong, Hong Kong

What I liked

I really enjoyed working in a start-up environment. Although I was initially brought on board as an Operations intern, I was able to vocalize my interest in the tech industry, so the CPO allowed me to have a dual-role internship as a Product Development intern as well. While I was there, I found that titles meant nothing in a start-up environment, as I was working for the Marketing team and Finance team almost every week. We had weekly team meetings with the entire company, where we recapped what each department completed, didn't complete, and what the department would work on next for the upcoming week.

What I wish was different

This was an amazing first work-experience for me!

Advice

Come in with an open mind and be willing to learn! Don't be surprised if you are put into roles that you are not comfortable with. All of the managers were previous interns, so they give your projects and assignments that they think would help you best in your professional development!
