Internship Success Stories

Convergys

During my time at Convergys, I had a variety of projects that were assigned. My main project was to organize and format the Data Center Survey that was distributed to find the strengths within our Data Centers so we could produce a marketing project based on the research gathered. This provided me with an opportunity to see and understand a product offered by Convergys from its’ inception by touring the facility and observing the process involved.

I also updated technology briefs that the sales team and business units use to stay up to date with technology. I transcribed the VoIP Panel for an issue of Bandwidth that was sent to 500 business managers and I updated competitive information viewed by the sales team.

What was the most important thing I learned from my internship?
The most important thing I learned from this experience was corporate culture. I was exposed to weekly conference calls, video conference calls, a three-month timeline for projects and due dates, and contributing to an assigned project group.

What advice would I give to another student who is seeking an internship?
Convergys is a wonderful company.Their Human Resource team provided the interns with great experiences that showed what Convergys did and how they operated. Be yourself and be confident.
