Week 3 the 23rd of March

The first day of the third week and the time seems to be slowing down every hour. You can definitely start to notice the difference in the amount of work due to the changing global situation. In my opinion, the HR department does not meet my expectations, and I have decided to mail my supervisor to ask him if I can partially integrate into the financial department just like Bart.

Bart did mention he is very optimistic and satisfied with his switch to the financial department and also I do like to use my time both efficiently and effectively and gave me a sense of hope as I am afraid for my internship will be unsufficient.

Together with my supervisor, we agreed that I will start the day off with all personnel-related work as I still am excited and want to learn still from the HR department. My supervisor has forward some theories which are important for me to understand the financial sector, investments and how to deal with unexpected fluctuations. That is what I will partially focus on in the upcoming weeks as well from now on.

The situation is improving which gives me a sense of relieve, next time I will make sure to not exclude different departments of a company and put all of my 100% focus at just one. Staying openminded is the way forward.

Also, have I been involved in contacting a Turkish embassy and counseling on the different steps to be taken to help a Turkish citizen obtain the Erasmus

I have been told that a few companies actually participate in recruitment outside of the EU as it comes with a lot of paperwork. However, Vision Factory takes on the challenge.
