Day 8

I have had a great time at SAS and am so thankful for the opportunity to intern here for two weeks. Today started out meeting with a technical consultant at SAS. Melissa told us about her career journey, and what lead her to SAS. She noted that her favorite part about working at SAS was the people, and talked to us about what consulting really is. We learned that consulting is basically people paying money for your services. Since SAS software is so complex, as a technical consultant she works to help guide companies who are using SAS software on how to use and implement it. After we met with Melissa, we met with Rani our final meeting of the program. Rani talked to us about her role in alliance. She acts as a liaison between SAS and some of its partners, like Deloitte and KPMG. She told us about the variety of jobs she has had before SAS. For our final activity in Risk, we had a round table with 3 of the summer interns who we asked various questions to. We talked to the interns about what lead them to SAS, why they chose to major in Comp Sci and many other things. As we wrapped up our activities with the Risk department, it was time to head over to building A for the conclusion of the program. In A we met all of the other CA interns and headed downstairs for lunch. After lunch, we had the opportunity to present our Gather IQ videos to some people who build the app and who work in HR for SAS.
