My experience at Elty: balancing study, work and personal growth
Entering the workforce is an exciting and challenging transition. On one hand, there is the enthusiasm of testing your knowledge and skills, joining a team, and contributing to projects that have a real impact on the market. On the other hand, there is the awareness of having to manage new responsibilities, adapting to a different work rhythm, and balancing work demands with personal commitments, such as studying to complete your educational journey. This article explores my experience as a master’s degree student in marketing, who is about to finish her academic path by entering the professional world with a curricular internship at Elty, the brand of DaVinci Salute. Through my experience, it becomes clear how a positive and dynamic work environment can facilitate a smooth integration into the workforce while balancing both study and work.
The life of a student and the change
University days are often characterized by a hectic pace of lectures, intense study, exams, and projects. The transition to the working world introduces a new dimension of responsibility and organization. In the life of a student, the shift to days spent in the office requires an adjustment of habits and lifestyle. However, the challenge of balancing work and study has proven to be a valuable opportunity to develop time management and organizational skills.
The young and smart environment of Elty
Elty, in this sense, has proven to be a truly special company. From day one, I felt warmly welcomed and supported by a team of young, skilled, and helpful colleagues. The work environment is smart and dynamic, where ideas are valued, constant interaction is encouraged, and collaboration is key to achieving ambitious goals.
One of the most rewarding aspects of my internship at Elty has been the work environment. Elty stands out for its young and smart approach. The team is composed of enthusiastic and motivated professionals, ready to share knowledge and support newcomers. This welcoming environment has made my integration easier, allowing me to feel part of the company from the very first day.
Elty’s corporate culture promotes innovation and collaboration. Meetings are moments of creative exchange, where every idea is valued, and every contribution is appreciated. This positive atmosphere not only facilitates learning but also stimulates personal and professional growth.
The importance of a positive work environment
A positive work environment can make a significant difference in an intern’s experience. Feeling welcomed and supported directly impacts the level of motivation and attitude towards work and the future. Working in such a positive and stimulating context has had a significant impact on my internship experience. It has allowed me to face challenges with enthusiasm and to balance my work responsibilities with those of my studies. I have learned the importance of teamwork, effective communication, time management, and how to organize myself to be productive in both areas.
In addition to practical and technical skills, at Elty, I have also developed my soft skills, such as the ability to relate to different people, proactivity, flexibility, and problem-solving.
The emotions of change
Facing such an important change inevitably involves a series of emotions. From initial excitement to fear of the unknown, every stage of the journey is accompanied by contrasting feelings. The uncertainty of the future and the fear of not meeting expectations can be overwhelming. However, thanks to the support of colleagues and Elty’s corporate culture, I have learned to turn these emotions into a source of positive energy.
The satisfaction derived from the first work successes and the recognition of one’s efforts represent moments of great gratification. Every small milestone achieved strengthens self-confidence and awareness of one’s abilities.
The well-being of Elty’s employees
A company that values its employees and invests in their growth creates a climate of trust and mutual respect, which translates into greater commitment and productivity from everyone.
Elty pays great attention to the well-being of its employees, fostering a serene work environment and balancing work demands with private life. This approach not only improves the quality of life for employees but also helps create a harmonious and productive work environment. Moreover, being grateful to the company you work for influences personal satisfaction and consequently drives one to give their best in their work. Happy and motivated employees are the real engine of a company’s success.
Conclusion
I am living my internship experience with the awareness of having acquired valuable skills and knowledge for my professional future. But above all, I carry with me the memory of a truly special human and work experience, which taught me the importance of a positive and stimulating work environment for personal well-being and growth. Thanks to Elty and its corporate culture, I have been able to experience this transition as an enriching journey, preparing myself in the best possible way for my professional future.
