What are you working on at Keysight?
My team and I are building stations that are used to test, calibrate, and adjust a large portion of Keysight’s top products.
How does your role at Keysight complement your major and vice versa?
Working as product support I am able to practice my problem-solving skills and troubleshooting, which is a big part of writing code. Working at the leading company in radio wave technology is also very helpful as it compliments my EE courses.
What do you like best about working with your team?
It feels like we are all one big family. Everyone is incredibly willing and happy to help and answer questions. There is a lot to learn from all the great people at Keysight.
Did you participate in any virtual Keysight social events/activities?
The Kahoot! days are the best as everyone interacts with one another and we get to see what some of the other interns are knowledgeable about.
What’s something you’ve learned while at Keysight?
I have not taken any radio or digital communications classes so all of that is brand new to me, and being able to work with the very best equipment possible helps a lot in the learning process.
If you could give one piece of advice to future interns, what would it be?
I would definitely advise you to get to know as many people as possible. Ask lots of questions because people give incredible answers.
How would you compare working at Keysight to working on your degree?
I enjoy the more social aspect of working in an office where we are all working towards one collaborative goal rather than having to keep our work from one another in college in order to not be reprimanded.
Describe some of your favorite moments at Keysight.
I was fortunate enough to meet the team in Roseville and see a completely different part of Keysight. I was also able to meet customers in southern California which opened my eyes to how our equipment is used in real-world applications.
What will you take from your experience with Keysight into your future endeavors?
I now know what it is like to work at a large engineering firm which will definitely make me more prepared for future opportunities.
What has surprised you most about interning at Keysight?
Working at Keysight was very different from what I expected. There are so many different roles one can choose from that it is hard to find something that is not fulfilling.
