I was fortunate enough to have been able to intern at Serato over two summers as a software engineer and the experience was invaluable.* *The people and culture are fantastic and I felt so welcome and comfortable during my time there. I was given the opportunity to work on two different teams and two different products during my time at Serato and given the perfect balance of guidance, freedom and responsibility.* *Over time I've noticed in my day to day university life that I still apply principles and skills that I gained throughout my internship and have a much better grasp of real world applications. It's pretty special to say that I can directly see what my work has helped to achieve when I open up Serato DJ or Serato Studio on my computer. I will always be grateful that Serato not only trusted me to, but gave me the tools to work on real-life projects, and as a bonus I came away with some new friends too! I cannot recommend an internship at Serato enough!"* **Dana Ye-Lee - University of Auckland , Bachelor of Engineering (Hons)/ Bachelor of Science Conjoint** *"I have done two internships at Serato over the summer of 2019-2020 and 2020-2021, and they were delightful experiences. During my first internship, I got to put into a team to work on Serato DJ. I learnt Agile, Test Driven Development, and multiple new programming languages such as C\+\+ and Python.* *I decided to come back the next year and got a chance to work on implementing new features for Serato Studio. A highlight during my internship is that I got to work with other full-time developers on real projects. I received so much help from my team members and always felt I was treated as a real software developer. Overall, the internship was very enjoyable and it prepared me well for my future career."* **Emily Yang - University of Auckland, Bachelor of Engineering (Hons)**
