I am Upneet Bhatia. I was born in India, but I haven’t lived there since I was 7. I grew up in a small quiet country called Oman, and then moved to the U.S 10 years ago to go to school at UT, Austin. So, I consider myself a global citizen. This summer I will be interning at Amazon. I consider myself very fortunate to have gotten an internship with one of my top choices! I will be interning as a Product/Retail intern with the Website Application Platform team. I will be responsible for the marketing strategy for a new service by Amazon that will be launched in a few weeks. This project will also utilize some of my software engineering background. So I am glad that I will be able to leverage my past experience.
I am expecting to learn a lot about Amazon, and to work in cross-functional teams through this internship. I will also be able to build on my network by interacting with interns from other business schools. I am excited about living in the apartment complex with a 100 other MBAs and meeting new people. I look forward to building my business chops and working hard. Since I am a career switcher, I am nervous about whether I have the skills to succeed in my new role. However, I am confident that I will have plenty of support this summer.
Hopefully, the next time I blog, I will be able to reveal more about my project.
