Having a goal is a vital quality, it provides focus and motivation needed to achieve what I have set out. In this article, I am writing about my objectives of joining the HNG Internship 8 program.
What is the HNG internship?
HNG internship is one of the biggest remote internship for developers in Africa, it aims at changing the way education is done in Africa, however it does not aim to train others to become developers but it does shape them into becoming one. The internship last for about two to three month. It is not for beginners but beginners can give it a try, the organizers would however assume that you already know how to code.
Why I Enrolled For the Internship
I applied for HNG internship because I heard about how intense it was. I'm really just looking to learn a lot.
I've always yearned for a hands-on learning opportunity, and I believe this will provide me with "experience." It may be argued that it is a necessary method of learning rather than being informed overtly.
My goals for the internship
The goals I set up at the end of this program are:
1. Career Development and Challenging myself.
Working with other awesome developers around the world make one better, one get to learn a lot of things quickly and HNGi provides a fast paced environment with the talent for such.
I have always considered HNG internship a challenge and I don’t take challenges lightly, and I am completing the program. I aim to be generally better.
1. Networking with amazing minds.
HNG Internship provides the opportunity to meet professionals, mentors, and co-participants that certainly involve people with great minds which aids making new friends.
1. Winning the T-SHIRT
Winning the T-SHIRT is really on my mind, the T-shirt symbolizes all the hard work and resilience I have shown through out the program.
1. Work on awesome products.
Building software is every developers’ joy, even better when you’re building it with great developers, which will help in boosting my confidence.
With the above goals being set out, am happy to start my journey as an intern at HNG.
