My summer assignment is to research document systems and other sources, collect data about Akamai content, and prepare a sample inventory to be used for the Content Curation project. Memorable moment from your summer experience: I had a really fun time at Tom’s barbeque, it was a great way to meet other interns and hear about Akamai from its own CEO!!

Akamai Foundations for Engineers

• In June, I participated in an interactive four-day course where several Akamai professionals spoke about their respective concentrations to provide an in-depth background on the company for new hires.

• Not only was this a great way to learn more about the company, I also was able to take a lot of the content I learned during it and apply it to my content curation project.

How will your summer project impact the business of Akamai?
