Q Seed Internship – the genesis of cultivating a new generation of talent
Corporate internships are an important part of global talent development. BenQ Materials strives to help potential talents realize the integration of school learning and work application by deepening the cooperation between industry and academia.
The Q Seed Internship program is designed precisely for this – to give students an opportunity to experience workplace life, so they can put their learning into practice and shape the direction of their future career development.
A spirit of experimentation
The 2022 Q Seed Internship focused on developing diverse talents, incorporating interns from human resources, legal affairs, IT and marketing departments.
During the internship, the students often mentioned that they were most impressed with the open and tolerant culture at BenQ Materials. Many were impressed by how mentors encouraged sharing and giving feedback, and allowed them to implement their own suggestions and ideas for projects.
One intern commented, “The mentors’ friendly leadership approach gave me the courage to try different things. Even if I failed in the beginning, I was encouraged and guided by my colleagues to keep trying and improve my skills on the assigned tasks. In the end, I was able to deliver results that were praised by everyone. It gave me more confidence in my own abilities.”
Practical experiences to build workplace capabilities
The Q Seed Internship program facilitates dedicated mentors to lead interns through assigned projects and advise them on career development. Broader training activities such as presentation skills, project management, and cultural experiences are also offered to help interns quickly adjust to the work environment, gain a better understanding of how to manage their personal brand, and strengthen their work management.
By completing projects independently, students are able to break through theoretical frameworks, blending academic experience with workplace practices, and develop their abilities during the internship.
Profound memories through inspiring interactions
The internship program not only benefits the interns but also helps mentors to grow. Interns often bring fresh perspectives that help to stimulate new ideas and ways of doing things. By incorporating the work styles of a younger generation into the current workflow, more efficiencies can be realized.
One mentor reflected, “The interns have a positive attitude and are open to learning. Although they have less experience and need more guidance on how to communicate in the workplace, they have great ideas and creativity. What’s more, they can deliver amazing project results when directions are given. I always feel a sense of accomplishment when I see the interns grow and receive recognition from colleagues.”
Built on a foundation of being project-based and having dedicated mentors involved, the Q Seed Internship program has been in operation for several years now. It is BenQ Materials’ aim that participating students have gained a better understanding of their own strengths and career directions. Feedback from the interns has consistently been positive, enhancing the company’s reputation as an employer of choice, and creating wonderful memories for both interns and mentors.
