Colu Technologies

Business Development Intern

August - December 2020 • San Francisco, CA

What I liked

I was able to provide significant value to the company and have a meaningful experience that also resulted in receiving a full-time offer at the end of my internship! I appreciate that from the beginning, my voice has always been heard and taken into account in decision making. The startup environment allowed me to have exposure to and collaborate with other departments like Marketing, Customer Support, Product, etc. which taught me about processes I would have never been exposed to otherwise. As for the interview process, it felt efficient and straightforward. First-round was a 10-15 minutes call and then the final round was a video interview with senior management.

What I wish was different

A little bit more structure and clearer tasks prioritization, but completely expected for a startup. I’ve seen significant improvement since I joined and more team members have been added to account for the growing client list.

Advice

Be ready and excited to be part of a fast-paced startup culture where being flexible, agile, and able to handle multiple tasks/projects in a multicultural environment is important. You will get to work with various cities and communities across the country as well as a dedicated team based in Tel Aviv, which is really unique.
