I have interacted with two
managers so far. Bala is a software engineer and I was temporarily placed under
his care until my full time manager returned from vacation. I did not enjoy my
time with Bala, although he was very nice and tried to be helpful, I felt as if
he was demanding too much of me. He asked to develop complicated algorithms
even though I had little to no experience with algorithms. I felt as if the
work was a bit too difficult for me and maybe I was under qualified for my
internship. During my second week though I have been paired with Zoran who will
remain my manager for the remainder of my internship and I have been very fond
of working with him. He has provided me with ample tutorials and assigned me
small projects that are challenging but at the same time I am able to complete.
I have really begun enjoying my internship now.
Zoran is also a software
engineer by profession but he is working as a manager and this is similar to
what I would like to do in life. I want to obtain a bachelor’s in Computer
Science and work as a software engineer for a few years and then eventually
become a manager. To do this I will need an MBA. I have spoken briefly with
Zoran about following this career path and he has been very encouraging,
providing helpful advice as well.
