Spring 2023 Internship Experience

As the spring semester comes to an end, I find myself thinking about my time at BMW Financial Services NA, LLC. This internship has been an exciting adventure that has allowed me to work on tough projects and collaborate with skilled people in the industry. I honed my attention to detail and developed a strong sense of organization. My problem-solving skills have improved, allowing me to assess issues and devise innovative solutions. These abilities, combined with effective communication, have proven to be essential assets in my personal and professional success.

BMW Financial Services NA, LLC offers financial services. The company provides lease, retail, and wholesale financing, as well as credit card solutions. The primary business activities are the financing and leasing of BMW Group vehicles and motorbikes for retail and commercial customers. The Alphabet brand is used for fleet management and finance. BMW Group Financial Services additionally provides customers with a selection of insurance and banking solutions. In this way, BMW Group Financial Services contributes significantly to the BMW Group's focus on consumers and solutions.

I'd like to thank my team and my manager for allowing me to work on three significant projects in my team, namely the Retail Dashboard, Auction Health Dynamics, and Inventory Model. Working on these projects provided me with an excellent opportunity to learn about Used Car Business principles and put my technical skills to the test for project deliverables. My main responsibility on these projects was to search the data warehouse and transactional database for fields required to automate the operations. I worked on numerous SQL queries to find missing data from inventory, as well as feature engineering to identify KPI's?for the auctions. I presented my results to the business using tableau dashboards to tackle various business concerns. Working on these projects provided me with actual, hands-on exposure with the most recent Data Science tools and technology. My internship required me to think critically and solve complex problems while honing my analytical and technical skills. The experience helped me gain confidence in my abilities and a better grasp of the topic of data analytics.

As my internship concludes, I believe it taught me the fundamentals of exploring data and implementing my analytical skills from a business perspective in a real-world corporate setting. My manager and team deserve my heartfelt thanks for their consistent support and for introducing me to many team opportunities during my period with BMW. In conclusion, it was a wonderful adventure that taught many significant lessons.
