talk is cheap - Trainee Designer AP8werks Employee Review

I had a fantastic experience during my internship at Ap8Werks. The knowledge I have gained during my 6 months internship with them is invaluable and allowed me to apply the knowledge I learnt in school in a real world context. The team was incredibly supportive and did not hold back on teaching me many things, providing consistent mentorship and constructive feedback which allowed me to grow both personally and professionally. I walked away with not just technical skills but also a lot of life lessons that will stick with me throughout my career. I had the opportunity to be a part of multiple projects which improved my understanding on how a project runs. Although the learning curve at first was challenging, their patient mentorship allowed me to not only grasp the concepts, but also execute tasks efficiently and to a high level of detail which will definitely benefit me in the long run.

The learning curve was steep at times and required a lot of self-learning and quick adaptation, but the mentorship and support helped me to adapt quickly

I was working as an intern for 6 months at AP8WERKS Pte Ltd as part of my Polytechnic module requirement. The staff at AP8WERKS were very friendly, helpful, caring and welcoming. During the initial interview the Director Mr. Tan and Ms. Priscilla were very easy to converse and communicate. And very understanding too. They stress upon the company’s value to be able to communicate well , learning experience, perseverance , passion and teamwork. The working environment and atmosphere were indeed stressful yet challenging, exciting and fun. The company also upholds the values of being open and creative about your inputs, ideas and opinion. I managed to pick up and learn substantially being exposed to the working nature and the many tasks given to me such as drafting and field assignments such on site and coordinating duties, meetings and communication with contractors. I have gained many insightful knowledge and and real working exposures throughout my internship stint at AP8WERKS. I am indeed grateful and indebted to AP8WERKS for giving me this invaluable working experience and opportunity.
