Key data

Job description: Trainee in Customizing
Company: Meierhofer AG
Place: Graz, Austria
I completed my internship from February to May 2022

My tasks during the internship:

Supporting activities in customizing:

  • SQL queries
  • Word templates created with textmarks
  • Creation of documentation pages
  • Ticket creation and processing
Why I enjoyed my internship:

The activities were very exciting and varied and I was able to solve tasks independently. I was also able to apply and deepen my knowledge from my studies. In the customising area, you also have a lot of direct communication with clients. What I also appreciated is that all new employees get a mentor who supports them during their onboarding. That way, you become familiar with the new tasks in the best possible way and can ask questions at any time. In general, you could turn to anyone with questions, as helpfulness and teamwork are very pronounced at Meierhofer. This also made working especially fun, as all colleagues are very nice and you were well accepted into the team. There were also various festivities.

What I have learned:

I got a really good insight into the business environment and got to know how to work with customers and other colleagues. I was also able to deepen my SQL knowledge and apply methods from project management.
