Q: What are three words your friends would use to
describe you? Q: If you could meet one person, dead or alive,
who would it be?
A: Conscientious. Cheerful. Optimistic. A: I am super fascinated with all things related to aeronautics
and space travel! So I would like to meet Neil Armstrong to
know more about his space travel and moon landing
experience.
Q: What's the best piece of career advice you've received?
A: “Failure will always be part of the process and an
opportunity to grow.” This has been a constant reminder
for me ever since I started working. I’ve lived with this.
Q: What's been your favorite thing about working at HP?
A: First, it’s a friendly, very welcoming culture. You can talk to
anybody without hesitation. Diversity and inclusion are also a
big part of HP’s culture. Whatever your age, gender, ethnicity,
nationality, race is, you will always feel your role is essential to
the company. Another thing I love about HP is their practice
of the growth mind-set. People give importance to feedback
and different views and insights because we know that this can
make HP better and allow us to Keep Reinventing.

Q: What's been your favorite thing about working at HP?
A: HP has perfect work-life balance. It is said that you are not
doing a good job if the job is all you do. As an intern at HP,
apart from my usual projects, I took part in a lot of recreational
activities, such as team building events, team lunches,
Employee Appreciation Day celebrations and more. I even
played for the oneHP team in the HP basketball tournament. I
also had the honor of being named one of the top seven finalists
across the world taking part in the annual #HPInsiders social
media competition.
Q: What’s your favorite HP innovation?
A: Undoubtedly, the Sprocket! With everything becoming
so digital, photo printing has become a thing of the past.
Nowadays, pictures just lie around somewhere lost in the
phone gallery. However, with the invention of the Sprocket, HP
has reinvented photo printing. Using the pocket-sized instant
photo printer, we can now print pictures on the go from our
phones. It has changed the way we share memories.
