This week, we started with a study visit from the Construction and Technical Schools Group students in Stargard. Engaging with the younger generation is a cornerstone of our approach, and here's why it's not just beneficial but crucial for our business: During their visit, the students examined the intricate process of prefabricated bathroom production from the ground up. This wasn't just a theoretical lesson; the students stepped into the shoes of quality control inspectors, comparing technical drawings directly with the actual bathroom modules. This hands-on experience is invaluable for the students, who gained practical insights and skills, and our company. Why is this engagement so critical? Firstly, it bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world application, preparing a skilled workforce ready to hit the ground running. Secondly, by opening our doors to these young minds, we're fostering a culture of innovation and fresh perspectives that can drive our company forward. Lastly, it strengthens our ties with the community, especially as many of our employees are proud Construction and Technical Schools Group alums in Stargard. We're not just investing in the potential workforce of tomorrow; we're actively participating in shaping it. This synergy between education and industry is where true innovation and growth lie, and we're excited to see where these bright young minds will take us in the future. See you at the internships! 🙂 #IndustryMeetsEducation #BuildingTheFuture #EcoReadyBath #CommunityEngagement

https://lnkd.in/e_h_aHCy The link above is the site that I posted at the beginning of my internship to show everyone the ins and outs of what I do. 2 of the points that I chose from this site are about "Measuring for accuracy" and "Planning, scheduling and communication” back then. The site emphasizes the importance of measuring for accuracy and planning, scheduling, and communication in the construction process. Accuracy is crucial as it ensures that cabinets and shelves fit within their designated spaces. Planning, scheduling, and communication are also crucial as mistakes can lead to wasted time and effort. For instance, if cabinets and shelves are incorrectly chosen, the process can be time-consuming and wasteful, resulting in wasted time and effort. Therefore, it is essential to prioritize these aspects in the construction process. #alpineinternships #mountainlandcte Alpine School District

Dear Connection I’m thrilled to share my recent internship experience at Mayura Appliance, the company behind the innovative grinder brand Smart Fingers. This opportunity was incredibly insightful and provided me with hands-on learning in a dynamic work environment. Throughout my internship, I was exposed to various departments, including: Manufacturing: I gained firsthand experience in motor assembly, panel board testing, and quality control. Understanding the intricacies of the manufacturing process, from assembling components to testing for efficiency, was an enriching experience. Stock and Packing: I also worked closely with the stock assembly team, learning how to manage inventory and ensure that products are prepared for dispatch. It was fascinating to see how different departments come together to deliver high-quality products to both domestic and international markets. Customer Care & Marketing: I gained exposure to how the company interacts with customers, addressing concerns, ensuring customer satisfaction, and understanding market demands, especially in regions like the US, Canada, and India, where different voltage requirements (110V and 230V grinders) must be met. Record-Keeping and Analysis: One of the essential tasks involved maintaining records using Google Sheets. This helped me appreciate the importance of accurate data in keeping the manufacturing process smooth and efficient. Interning with Mayura Appliance allowed me to not only hone my technical skills but also develop a deeper understanding of how various business functions work in tandem to achieve success. A big thank you to the entire team at Mayura Appliance for their mentorship and support. This experience has greatly enhanced my knowledge in manufacturing and business operations, and I’m excited to apply these skills to my future endeavors. #Internshipexperience #Learningbydoing #Manufacturing #SmartFingers #CareerGrowth #Teamwork #snsinstitution #snsdesignthinkers #designthinking

After working in over 8 different jobs—from selling uniforms to retail, F&B, dishwashing and others—primarily for financial reasons, I’m confident to say that my internship and subsequent part-time position with NTUC Club's UPlay Business Development Team has been the highlight of my working journey so far! This experience has been fantastic for my personal growth and professional development, offering a true sense of holistic development beyond just monetary gains. Here are the three key working values I have learned and observed from my colleagues in my department that I would like to share: • 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗮 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝘃𝗶𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁. My colleagues have shown me the value of working in a closely-knit department. Everyone tries to bring each other up and help each other, prioritising collective success over individual motives. Despite having busy schedules and deadlines to meet, my superiors always found time to guide me, and were always willing to share their knowledge. This positive work environment fostered collective success and continuous learning. • 𝗗𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲. Being between the Business Development and Marketing teams, I have seen how my superiors always strive to deliver the best service to their clients, both externally and internally. They often go the extra mile to provide added value wherever they can, and worked late hours whenever needed to ensure client satisfaction. This has truly opened my eyes to the meaning of being truly dedicated to one's craft. • 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸. Observing my colleagues' dedication and enthusiasm for their roles has taught me the significance of finding passion and purpose in work. Their commitment to the team’s goals and the positive impact of their efforts have inspired me to seek fulfilment and meaning in my own tasks. I am immensely grateful for the opportunity to be part of team with amazing colleagues and for the lessons and growth I've experienced here. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of this journey with me. #ProfessionalGrowth #PersonalDevelopment #Gratitude #Mentorship #Teamwork

Together as a team, we make a profound impact on the future.

Reflections from my internship with Keeley Construction Group Today is the last day of my internship with Keeley Construction. I want to share some insights that would benefit anyone stepping into a new position. Some thoughts are my own, others I picked up from colleagues. 1. Ask many questions, but only after you have tried to solve the problem yourself. It is quicker to rely on those with more experience, but it is beneficial in the long run to go through the problem-solving process. 2. Ask for extra work. This is something I heard from Al Dreste this summer. It shows that you are committed and invested in your work. 3. Make connections, but not just within your department. It is valuable to know at least one person from each area your company. Try to make eye contact with people when you are walking around the office. 4. Take ownership of your work. Confidence and accountability in your work will go a long way. 5. Don’t expect to master the job on your first day. It takes time to truly understand a new position. Stay positive and keep at it. I hope these insights are valuable in your career. I am grateful for my time at Keeley Companies and am excited for this next chapter.
