Things I learned in Uber

 

To all those who are thinking what this post is all about? Well this is about things I learned in Uber During My Internship from December 28 -March 24

1.You are accountable for your Work-Remember those days in College When you Did not used to your Home-work or Assignments and play the Blame Game on your Circumstances and parents or friends or even enemies and Teachers.Well in Real world you are accountable for what you do.If it's output is good you will be praised and alternatively if  ypu screw up than you are yourself to blame.

2.Startup Culture is great place to kick-start your Career with-Well i need not say anything in regard with that.But working in a startup leads to your exposure in working through many dimensions and facets.The amount of Ground-work you learn is exemplary and you work on almost all aspects of a company like Operations,Marketing and finance to name a few.

3.Learn Excel to God like levels - It is so funny how i used to undermine the importance of Excel but after this internship i feel if there is anything i need to learn,It is Excel.Operations Coordinator, Marketing people.Heck Even General Manager use it.

4.Be good with numbers-One cannot undermine the importance of maths and numbers.I have observed a personal Trend that those who are at top position are very good with numbers and finance.So in simpler terms if you want a great career ahead you must have an analytical bent of mind along with sound knowledge of finance.

5.Listen More talk less-When you listen you add more along with what you know but when you talk you subtract.So listen every person carefully.
