Tee — Boonyarit Sangsuksunti
From Electrical Engineer — CU
Position: Data Scientist (DS)
Can you please give us a big picture of your day?
I start my day with a routine and of course coffee. I usually work from home, so first off I review tasks and plan during the stand-up meeting. Then work and attend meetings until noon with short breaks that help me refocus. After work, I enjoy activities like gaming or watching series.
What was your favorite moment at LINE MAN Wongnai?
I had the opportunity to help analyze and clean text data for training an AI agent for Customer Service. It made me feel like I was part of creating projects beyond what I personally worked on. It was impressive how an intern can have this opportunity.
What have you learned during your internship?
During a project with an open-scoped topic, I misinterpreted the data and the approach didn’t align well with the task. So I took a step back and brainstormed a new method. This project gave me important lessons about finding ways to solve problems without being scared to make mistakes. As I continued to work on the project, I gained valuable insights into what approaches were effective and which ones were not.
Any advice for people who want to apply for this program?
Don’t hesitate to apply for it! This internship has been really great and the team members are always providing guidance and listening to our opinions. The company has a modern culture with flexible working hours. No one is constantly monitoring us, but we are expected to complete our tasks within the designated time frame. You will definitely not be disappointed with your decision.
