My Summer OJT Insight

Finding a company that accepts interns for this summer is not that easy. Unlike other schools, we, Ateneans, should search for a company and personally submit our resumes with an endorsement letter. Ingenuity was one of the companies that I tried to apply. I remembered that we were only five examinees during that day and we were the last batch to take Ingenuity’s screening exam. After the exam, I waited for three days for the exam result. When I read the email from Ingenuity, I was so happy to know that I will be one of their interns.

On our orientation day, I was quite shocked that the company only accepted eight interns. I felt very blessed that I made it to this company. I was then determined to learn python and Django in this company. For the first two weeks, we have lecture classes wherein we were taught python programming and Django. We also had exercises and practical exam in which I can apply all the things that I have learned from the lectures and also read more docs about Django.

This week, it was decided by the CEO that the eight of us will be working as a team. Each one of us is assigned with a particular task to assure that everyone have a contribution for the project. While doing this project, I can see that all of us are dedicated in accomplishing our tasks. When a member got problems or errors, the other members are willing to help.

I hope that we could finish our group project and successfully present it to the CEO and our mentors. As our summer OJT is about to end, I must say that it is an honor to be trained in one of the best software engineering company here in Davao City. I will surely cherish all the moments that I've spent with my co-interns and all the learnings and experiences that I had in this company.
