UPSER SPOTLIGHT
Meet Team UPS
Ousseynou G.
Telecommunications Analyst
USA
Ousseynou Gueye (pronounced: Oh-Say-New Guy) is one of many UPSers who got their start with us as an intern.
After graduating from Kean University with a degree in Information Technology, he joined UPS I.T.'s summer internship program to get hands-on experience in the real world. "The chance to work on real-life projects was very intriguing, and having an actual impact on a huge company is very meaningful," he said.
Ousseynou returned as an intern for our 2020 and 2021 sessions, participating in our program remotely. He adapted to our virtual setting, learned about our businesses, and took full advantage of the internship program’s opportunities. In 2021, Ousseynou was a part of our Global Network Services (GNS) group and helped his team find ways to improve its involvement with data analytics. He also worked on several projects and tasks to help GNS.
Looking back on his in-person and virtual experiences, Ousseynou saw value in both and felt that they benefitted his internships in their own ways. He appreciated how flexible UPS was in accommodating the needs of its interns during the peak of remote working.
To future interns joining UPS I.T., Ousseynou offered some advice, he said, "Ask questions! Don’t be afraid to be wrong. At the end of the day, the internship is a learning experience, and you should try your best to obtain as much knowledge as you can."
