The best thing about working in Hitachi is its importance on values, which makes it one of a kind.
Being a New College Graduate at Hitachi
It’s been 8 months since I’ve joined, I initially joined as an Intern then became an Associate in the Core Infrastructure Services Team. I was nervous about working at a Tech firm, but the dedicated training from experienced professionals at has given me the confidence I needed. I’ve trained on many technologies: Linux; Python; Virtualization; Storage; Network; completed my Brocade SAN Administrator Certification Management and I’m now moving forward on VMware, getting my Python Basics and Advanced certified too.
My team includes me in all the projects and activities – Automations, Data Center activities, which I feel is a great opportunity for me to learn. I shadow my team members when they’re working, and they’re supportive about it as well and are always up for assisting me. Within months of joining, I had a clear understanding of the work, and I even built a real-time project in python, Automation of Server Vulnerability Report Generation, which is now very helpful for my team members as it minimizes manual work and errors.
My future
I have many opportunities to learn, which is highly encouraged here, and got the chance to work on live projects, which is again a huge opportunity to take my career further.
The work environment is very healthy. I feel included, supported, and people respect each other’s views and ideas. I like that I get to connect one-on-one with leaders, and they get to learn about my experience and give feedback. I also love the sustainability initiatives at our campus.
Apart of these, we have fun events every month and cultural events occasionally, where I get to relax and bond with my peers.
