“Keen to apply what I’d learned in my degree, I started my graduate internship at PostFinance. I was welcomed with open arms at Market Research. I was soon taking the lead in projects and contributing my expert input and own ideas. The contact with employees from other departments, graduate interns and trainees gave me a great insight into other specialist units. If you’re looking to gain an understanding of a highly diverse company and want to apply your skills and what you’ve learned on your degree, then a graduate internship at PostFinance is just the right option.”

“After my bachelor’s degree in business informatics, I was looking for internships in IT. PostFinance advertised various exciting positions, but the graduate internship as a solution architect appealed to me most. In February 2018, I started my internship in this very team. The helpful and positive feedback culture at PostFinance meant I was able to learn a great deal very quickly. As an intern, I also got the opportunity to work on the major project to introduce e-asset management centrally. During the placement, I was able to apply much of what I’d learned on my degree programme and to put my abilities to the test. I enjoyed working at PostFinance so much that, with support from my line manager, I made an internal application during my placement and was taken on as an IT Business Analyst. This position provides a really good insight into a bank’s various departments and challenges during projects. During the set-up of the agile organizational structure, I moved to IT architecture in the field of big data, analytics and reporting, where I’ve worked ever since. My tasks here include planning and enabling the provision of data and information via applications. The data is then used to make well-founded business decisions.”
