Quotes from earlier interns at Company:

Filippo: 

"At Company42 I learned the importance to take data-driven solutions and decisions. The most significant learning has been to understand that choices can and should always rely on rationality instead of "gut" instincts. Lifting one's ego from the decision-making has been eye-opening."

Sowmmiya:

"It’s refreshing to have been a part of Company42, that does value their employees. From the culture to the opportunities, to the commitment and perfect work-life balance with the fantastic coworkers. Company42 has been just perfect. I am proud to have been a part of Company42."

Shudi:

"I think the growth course is very useful! I have learned a lot about marketing and business in general.

Also personally it’s a brand new experience working in a young innovative Danish company. I really love it.

Totally shaped my view of Danish culture, in a good way."
