Working as a Graphic Design Assistant, I learnt the basic functions of Adobe Illustrator, as a first time user. My tutor Denis was very patient and encouraging as he guided me along different projects and tasks.
One of my projects was to design the homepage for one of Wiseman’s products. Before all the design work began, Denis asked me to do in-depth research on how to design a proper website. That research enabled me to gain a general knowledge of what a proper website should look like. By researching and discussing my work with Denis, I was able to create a homepage that met the needs of the product.
In addition to design projects, Wiseman gave me a chance to represent the company by giving orientations to secondary schools. I have made the most out of these golden opportunities, giving orientations to hundreds of students in different schools. Talking to an audience is not something everyone can do, and these experiences have broadened my horizons and increased my confidence in public speaking.
Finally, through Wiseman, I was also able to try my hand at data input using Microsoft Office Excel, and I even set up accounts and modules for new users.
To conclude, I had a tremendous experience with this company. Wiseman has taught me to work both independently and as part of a team. Three weeks was a really short period of time for an internship and I feel like I should have stayed longer. I would like to thank every member of the Wiseman staff for their kindness, patience and humor, which made my time with them unforgettable. Once again, thank you all for everything.
