Overview

Throughout 2023, I had the opportunity to gain significant learning and development experience, marking my first professional internship in the U.S. at BENEV.

More about my internship

Enhanced customer experience by developing an
E-learning process, updating the website's UX and content, and designing key materials for various initiatives.

I worked closely with the senior designer and marketing team to support product launches at trade shows by designing packages, catalogs, and marketing materials, which were showcased to over 10,000 attendees. Additionally, I conducted competitor research and managed the website on platforms such as BigCommerce and HubSpot to enhance UX and content. I also developed an E-learning system for first-time and returning customers. Furthermore, I assisted in modifying code using HTML and CSS to optimize website performance.

Challenges & Learnings

From Curiosity to Proficiency

  • Collaborative

  • Proactivity

  • Time management

  • Communication

It wasn't just about individual tasks; it was about the team. Teamwork played a pivotal role throughout my internship. Collaborating on task distribution, brainstorming ideas, and receiving feedback from coworkers taught me how effective teamwork leads to achieving goals and driving valuable success.

I consistently engaged with new tools and gained valuable industry insights daily. Adapting to this dynamic environment, I organized meeting with consultant, researched trends, and applied them to my work. I also proposed innovative design schemes to my team, contributing to our collective growth and innovation.

I developed a profound understanding of the significance of prioritizing tasks and meeting deadlines. With numerous objectives and competing priorities, anticipating and organizing tasks became essential for ensuring our collective success.

I regularly interacted with new clients, learning to understand their unique needs. Grasping how individuals responded to the information and visuals we created and effectively communicating their evolving requirements was crucial for progressing to the next step.

This experience emphasized the value of coworker insights and teamwork.​
