My internship at Pep Boys has been a great experience so far. I really enjoy the company’s culture. Everybody is very friendly and willing to help me whenever I have any question. I also learn a lot from all of my projects. Now I feel more confident working with database using SQL or Excel. Pep Boys also gave me a great opportunity to talk with…[Read more]

One thing that I learn during my time working that I didn’t learn in school is business etiquette. I came to work and expected that every body is serious and professional. However, I realized after a couple day at work that everyone is very chill at my department. They joke around and they talked to each other as normal friends. However, people…[Read more]

I think that MIS 2502 helps me a lot with my internship. The knowledge of SQL that I learned from this class enables me to work well on different projects that my manager gives me. Working as a data analyst for a retail company, I have to know how to pull out data from multiple tables which contain million transactions records. On the other hand,…[Read more]

I only take one class this summer so it is not too bad. For school work, I always make sure that I finish everything on time. I read the syllabus carefully and put on my calendar all the deadlines along with the work I have to do. At work, my job is very flexible so I don’t have to worry about reaching deadline. Every time my manager gives me a…[Read more]

The most important skills that I have discovered in my internship are technical and communication skills. There is a big difference between what I have learned in school and what I do at my job. I think I know everything about SQL since I got a good grade for Data Analytics; but I am stuck when I need to use SQL to get more detail information for…[Read more]

On my first day at work, all the new hired employees ( includes all interns) are gathered for an orientation. We were provided breakfast and then we went over some hiring documentations. Later on, each of us finished an online orientation with videos about company and how to use the company’s intranet system. The online orientation is very…[Read more]

This week, the PMs worked on finishing their final deliverable. In addition, the BAs worked on finishing their final version of the prototype and presentation. The PMs and BAs had a meeting on Wednesday to see the most update version of the prototype and watch the presentation practice. The prototype is out of expectation even though it is not finished yet. However, the presentation needed to be improved. They went over time and forgot their lines at some points. If they can fix those problem, the presentation will be perfect. Again, I expected a great success for our BAs on the project. They worked hard and they would be rewarded.

Week 3 This week is not really a productive week for PM’s team. We were all busy with midterm exam so we didn’t have much time for meeting. However, the BAs did a great jobs with their scope document. They also go far beyond with their prototype. The PMs helped BAs by reading the scope document through Google drive and make some edits.
Week 4 ( February 27th) This week, the PMS made a status report for the project. Professor was really impressed with the triangle we made and he made us present in front of the class. The third interview was on Thursday afternoon and it was the last interview. Therefore, on Wednesday, the BAs met to make up 15 questions. The PMs looked up all the question on a Google drive spreadsheet and we made some comments and suggestions for the BAs. The interview went well and our BAs did a good job and took good notes. I was really impressed because all the BAs were passionate and dedicated.
Week 5 ( March 6th) Spring break week. Because of the break, there was nothing really happened this week. Ben Kates updated all the interview notes to Google Drive for PMs to see.
Week 6 ( March 13th) This week, the PMS worked on creating a first draft for some new materials in the deliverable. Since it was hard to find a time to meet this week, we decided to divide work and each was responsible for a single task.I worked on the RACI chart; Mart worked on the organizational chart and Chris worked on the stakeholder list. The BAs started to work on the business rules and use cases. We used Groupme as an useful tool for the BAs to ask PMs all related questions to the project. The BAs were really into the project.
