I found my internship thanks to the IQS Career Forum held at IQS. I am doing my internship at a process simulation company. We work with a software which is used by energy, oil and gas companies, which helps them to optimize the use of resources like energy or crude among others, as well as to accelerate emissions reduction and decarbonization.

The IQS Careers also helped me to prepare my CV and the job interview to gain this position.
