I've been doing internship in Dresden Informatik GmbH for 6 months, and tomorrow is time to say goodbye... looking back, I
can confirm that coming to Germany, and choosing to work at this company was one of the best decisions I've ever made.
Many would ask "Why a small company?", or "Dresden? I've never heard of it!“. Before coming here, I was in the 4th year of
my
computer engineering course in Brazil, and looking forward to get a great internship abroad, with a good working environment
and as much learning opportunities as possible. I got to know Dresden Informatik GmbH by AIESEC, and when I saw the company
information saying about friendly working environment, that immediately got my attention. It would be my first time living
abroad. Good experience in work would not be enough; I also needed to have conditions to pass my time in a healthy way, becoming
more mature without stress due to a too rigid environment, for example. In Dresden Informatik GmbH I've found exactly what
I wanted: very friendly co-workers, a lot of opportunities to learn, in a really beautiful city!
Here I was surprised at how friendly my bosses, supervisor and co-workers were. They dedicate their precious time to make
you fell
comfortable, going out to have lunch with you or even to paddle with all the company staff! Seeing everyone in the company
together at Friday mornings, eating breakfast was also a beautiful memory that I will keep forever.
As it is a small company, you are able to have a wider experience while working. You don't only test or code something already
planned before. You are able to discuss solutions with your supervisor in a friend-to-friend way, what is really important
for
your personal and professional development. You have freedom to expose your own ideas, even being an intern with limited
experience.
The city of Dresden really impressed me too. A really good transport system, even comparing with other European cities, a
rich
cultural life and a lot of opportunities to have fun at daylight or night makes Dresden a really attractive and charming
place.
To finish, I would really like to say thanks to Stefan, who was a great supervisor and friend. We had really nice conversations
together! I also would like to thank Mr. Ille and Mr. Stiller for being great and gentle bosses and to Susi, Robert and Martin
for all their friendship, which was really important to me as a newbie in a foreign country! I also want to thank all of the
company staff, which smiles at mornings and attention also made each of my days better!

My six months long Internship in Dresden Informatik has been a thorough experience in both the german culture and the
technical challenges I will face during my career. Thanks to the friendly administration and the staff that made my
life easier, and helped to get used to two difficult things: living abroad and working.
If you perceive an internship as the beginning of your career and working life, the first impression about working
life almost always depends on your first colleagues and the working environment. I have found out that the environment
in Dresden Informatik is -in spite of my non-existing german- social and friendly.
Also Dresden Informatik has been a nice starting point, since the company is one of the examples of industry-software
integration, and focuses on the new technology that can be patched to the existing ones. With the existing customer
portfolio, and the know-how; I had the chance to extend my skills beyond what I have learned at school.
Finally, I have to thank especially to Frank, my chief and later manager, for he had made such an experience possible,
and to Mathias who lend his computer to me(which is something very important for an IT person), to Michael for
his help and accompany, and to others for their support and interest.

Today is the last day of my traineeship at Dresden Informatik GmbH, in Germany. What can I tell you about it? Everything
that I will never forget.
Once upon a time, there was a 24 year-old Brazilian girl, graduated in Informatics, dreaming about a traineeship in a
foreign country. Suddenly, she had on her hands the possibility to travel to Germany and work there for 3 months, facing a
completely different experience that she has never tried before. And she left on August 26th, 2002, everything arranged
by AIESEC.
I started here on September 2nd, in a beautiful and sunny morning in one of the last warm days in the European summer.
I was not nervous, but a little bit anxious. At least I was not going alone, because one AIESEC member, responsible for
my traineeship, was supposed to introduce me to the company. I got to know almost everybody, among 20 people, but at that
moment I could not keep in my mind all of that different German names (something that was solved some weeks later),
except of my two orientators and one of the bosses. Their friendly and polite welcome reception made me feel very well
and comfortable, even in an unknown language environment (from people names up to simple Windows menus). An eletronic
version of a German-English dictionary was really useful! I would like to emphasize that English was the leading
language in our communication for working.
After receiving the main task to be developed during my traineeship, we still discussed together the best tools and
conditions to do that, in a good way for Dresden Informatik, their customers and me. This attitude showed me that my
opinions were being considered and, therefore, I was also interacting with them. And I really need interaction.
But I could also improve my extremely basic German knowledge about food in our lunch and snack times. Ordering Chinese,
Turkish or sometimes (believe or not!) German food, being introduced to the newest homemade wine, or making an intensive
course about how to make cappuccino, I was involved in a couple of funny situations because of my accent. In spite of I
had German classes in Brazil and for (only) one month more here, I can not speak German yet. Once I want to come back to
Germany some day, I will restart my language studies as soon as possible there. But just this international experience has
already improved so much my technical and language knowledges that it can provide a very good new job in my home country.
Even so, I think that the greatest training at Dresden Informatik GmbH was about values, such as respect, reliability and
seriousness. It means that they also improved my mind.
So, you, candidate for a traineeship, who is keeping an eye on Dresden Informatik, be sure that you will not regret for
choosing this company as your new family.
And you, my dear workmates, be sure that I will just have very pleasant memories about these unique days of my life.
Vielen Dank für alles!
I would just like to ask the company something else, if it is possible: give this opportunity at least once more for
another dreamer. And then, again, and again, and again…
