My Goals for HNGi8 Internship Program

My name is Goodnews Samuel and I am a backend developer(Python). I am super super excited to be a part of this year’s HNG internship program.

For a Computer Science student and a tech enthusiast in Nigeria who do not get as much opportunity as required to practice what I am being taught in school, I was super glad when I saw the Zuri Training Program @ https://training.zuri.team opportunity.

At the Zuri training program, I started to learn a new programming language, worked on a number of tasks, got to experience some awesome minds(our mentors) and I also made amazing friends.
The experience at the Zuri training program stirred in me more passion for tech.

And it was with this passion now, I jumped on this opportunity given to me and the other 10,000+ interns for this internship program organized by HNG; a program not entirely targeted at beginners but open to everyone to task their minds and test their ability to work under pressure.

I have outlined my goals and what I want to achieve by the end of the 8weeks of this internship.

  1. To improve on my software development skills and master it well as I get the opportunity to work on tasks.
  2. To improve on my tech problem solving ability.
  3. To have an awesome team work ability, cause I understand this internship give us opportunities later to work in groups/teams to deliver on tasks
  4. To connect with as many awesome software developers as my mind can contain
  5. To understand more what really happens in the tech industry and what is expected of me as a backend developer. Conclusion: It’s been awesome already. I’m working on my first task now and I can sense the ride is going to be a beautiful one and I look forward to posting myself wearing the most celebrated HNG tshirt and writing an article of how I came to HNGi8 internship and conquered.

Below are links to some beginner tutorial that would help you, if you are new in the tech world.
