"Overall, my experience at Advantest was fantastic. Everyone was incredibly welcoming and it felt like they truly wanted to help me grow. I was able to learn and gain so much over the short time over summer thanks to both those I worked with and the actual work I did. The work itself felt both impactful and challenging, while still being achievable. By the end of my internship, it was incredibly rewarding to look back on the work I did and see both what I did and how I improved."
