What did you learn while working with DT Services and Consulting?
I developed a strong foundation in several technical domains, including:
– Data preprocessing and engineering
– Working with real-world industrial datasets
– Python-based data science tools (pyspark, pandas, etc)
Beyond the technical skills, I learned to adopt a research-oriented mindset, tackling problems with analytical thinking and rigor. The experience also helped me improve my collaboration and communication within a research team setting.
How did you feel being part of our team?
I felt genuinely welcomed and supported throughout my internship. The BRAIN team fostered a collaborative and open environment, where I could ask questions, share ideas, and receive constructive feedback.
I appreciated the accessibility of my supervisor, and the general team spirit that made the experience both enriching and enjoyable.
In what way will this experience help you in the future?
My ability to structure projects, a skill that will be useful in both academic and professional settings. It also gave a valuable preview of what it means to apply data science to real-world context.
