MELANIE – BUSINESS (AUSTRIA)

“My name is Melanie and I am from Austria. My target was to make this summer vacation something special and I am proud to tell you: it was the greatest summer I have ever had. I was offered an internship with this company in their head office in Sydney. They have 8 stores around Australia. Although the office is really small, this did not mean that there was not enough work. One of my tasks entailed processing online orders including sending products to customers.  I was allowed to improve my skills with communicating by phone with the stores and ensuring prompt pickup and delivery, further to these tasks I was expected to arrange a variety of quotes for necessary services which ensured all stores operated successfully.  I really enjoyed the time at the company, and found on busy days we still had time to interact and have a joke which made my working day much fun. In the end I want to thank Caroline for her patience and the great time together, I always felt welcome and that made my internship even more perfect.”
