Fyndhere Services is a very young company in the industry of consumer services platforms with an aim of revolutionizing buyer/seller interaction through their Fyndhere mobile application. As a product & strategy intern with the company, my role revolved around ideating new features for the app, prototyping them, testing them and pushing them to development once approved. The company being very young in age & experience had no standard operating processes, teams, hierarchies defined; navigating through the chaos was very challenging in the beginning. But as the internship progressed, all of the interns were able to collectively agree upon & setup various guidelines for collaboration, escalation matrices etc. which gave the workplace a lot of structure and stability. With respect to my role & responsibilities, having no experienced product manager in our team to guide me on the day-to-day activities certainly caused some confusion in the beginning. But it also allowed me enough freedom to plan my own work and how I approach my deliverables making me a better performer. did my three months summer internship program from LCAS which is a risk advisory firm. It also deals in insurance as well as has a dedicated team of Certified

Financial Professional. As my field of specialization is finance, my job role was to understand the risk appetite of various potential customers in terms of their responses to certain questions which will help us to understand their mindset and the other task was to fully understand the role of a Certified Financial Professional. My company mentor was Mohan Reddy, under whom I have learned various things in the field of finance. He was really helpful whenever we were facing issues in the learning stage. Overall, doing this internship was a wonderful experience and it gave me a lot of exposure in terms of professional jobs in the financial sector.

Explored the cutting-edge technology involved in the automation of marketing and sales activity, lead generation techniques. I was given an opportunity to research the marketing digital transformation and build the foundation for agile content management along with the client engagements which involved requirement gathering, data mapping, and data migration.
