The program was a valuable experience that enhanced my technical, interpersonal, and human management skills. It exposed me to working with people from diverse backgrounds and provided practical field experience that helped me transition smoothly into my current role as a Field Service Engineer. One of the key skills I learnt was Excel for analysis, which has been very helpful in my current field role, where analysis is a major part of the job.
