      Vodafone Connect the Future Intern

      I was honoured to be in the top 1% who were successful in securing an internship out of over 2,300 candidates who applied this year. Myself and the 25 other successful candidates for the “Leaders of the Future” internship attended monthly webinars with Vodafone, which included an interview with CEO Anne O’Leary, meeting the team, and learning about the culture and values of Vodafone. It is important to learn how to create meaningful connections remotely in these uncertain times, and to become involved with the new way of working - this summer has afforded me the opportunity to do both.
