Amy, Intern Global Corporate Communications: "At the beginning of my internship, I was warmly welcomed by the diverse corporate communications team. Working with the team provided an insight into all different areas of internal and external communication. In addition, they also offered me the opportunity to choose tasks that I wanted to specialize and expand my skillset on. During my time at Hilti, I gained a deep understanding for communicating with different stakeholders and got the chance to take responsibility for my own tasks and projects."
