Daria Świętojańska

My name is Daria Świętojańska, I’m 19 years old and I’m not studying at the moment. Soon after graduating from high school, I was not sure yet what course to choose for myself – I preferred to gain professional experience, which would later help me decide on specific studies. I am happy with my decision, because I am still a “freshman” here and I can already see how many possibilities there are and it also gives me some suggestions regarding my studies. I want to develop, the internship has made it possible for me. Privately, I am a cat lover, I like tattoos, photography, cooking and traveling.

How long have you been at Capgemini? Why did you decide to apply to us?
I’ve been in Capgemini since 12/07/2021, that’s when my internship started, so over four months. I have been a regular employee of the company since October. I was prompted to apply by opinions circulating on the Internet, but also among family and friends. When I was doing research on Capgemini, I watched a lot of videos on YouTube, I thought that there must be a great atmosphere and development opportunities – I was not disappointed. I am very glad that I sent my CV here.

What did you learn during the internship?
During the internship, I definitely improved my IT skills, I learned a lot of new things. Mainly thanks to Pluralsight, I was able to get to know DevOps, which made me very interested in that area. In addition, I was gradually learning the tasks that I do on a daily basis, some of them came with soft skill courses, where I learned how to professionally talk to people within and outside the organization. Additionally, I trained productive and task-oriented thinking.

Your role, what are you currently doing at Capgemini?
My current position is Junior Project Support Analyst. Together with my supervisor and some people in the team, I arrange recruitment interviews for managers in Data Services, conduct internal audits, submit monthly communication – DS Newsletter and tasks related to finances.

What advice do you have for other interns?
In my opinion, each of the future interns, after getting such a chance, should use it one hundred percent. Don’t be afraid to ask, stay active and focus on development with lots of interesting training that really comes in handy. Let yourself feel comfortable here and then it will not only be a job, but also a great adventure that does not have to end with the last day of the internship.
