What it is like to be a “Darwiinian”
We only work 2 days a week and offer 50 days of annual leave. Ok, not really, that's a JOKE, but now we have your attention!
Here’s a glimpse of who we are and what we believe:
we come from a special tribe called “self-starters”
we like working with nice and friendly people (yes, shocking)
we are gritty and entrepreneurial people who enjoy the “0 to 1” journey
we secretly cry over adversities and failures, but pick ourselves up and fight again
productivity & output trumps "9am-6pm" work schedule
Testimonials from our ex-interns
"My internship at Darwiin has been a real eye-opening experience. As a data science intern, I was fortunate to be given the opportunity to work on various NLP and Machine Learning techniques to apply to meaningful company projects. I was also able to work with various experts in the data science field who were patient and kind enough to guide me through the challenging tasks. It was an honour working with Guan and his highly motivated team."
- Justin Peh (NUS), Data Science Intern
"I was welcomed by the family culture at Darwiin. Just the first week into the internship programme, I was introduced to the other interns who were all very sociable and helpful throughout my few months here. My boss, Guan was very patient and meticulous in guiding us interns. He was also open and willing to hear our feedback and will check in with us every few weeks to see if we were managing our workload well and if that there were any improvements to be made. There was also a focus in diversity as the interns I knew came from Korea, Vietnam, India besides Singapore which helped me to learn how to appreciate differences in culture and perspectives better as they brought new things to the table which I usually don’t consider.
I was interning at the Marketing department as a Digital Marketing intern, during which I was assigned to set up and maintain the various social media profiles for Darwiin. My job scope included content marketing, Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) of content and profiles, email marketing and automation as well as managing the social media calendar. I really felt that it was an enriching and good learning experience to be part of Darwiin’s internship programme as I got to learn many new skills and gain valuable hands-on experience. If someone is looking for an internship to really learn and grow from, Darwiin is the place."
- Zachary Yeo (NTU), Digital Marketing Intern
My six-month journey as a data analytics intern with Darwiin was phenomenal. Despite the lockdown restrictions due to the pandemic, the level of exposure I received was unmatched. Interacting with data science professionals while working on projects that have a direct impact on the business, allowed me to gain confidence and experience in building models from the ground-up. Throughout my internship, I received continued support and guidance from my supervisor that encouraged me to push myself and experiment with programming languages that I was relatively new to. Overall, it was a great learning opportunity for me and I am grateful to Guan and my co-interns for making it meaningful!
