Q: Let’s start with some quick intros! What University are you attending, and what is your major? 

Aniyah: I attend Georgia Institute of Technology, majoring in Computer Science with concentrations in People and Information Internetworks.  

Rose: I am a Rising Senior at Colgate University in Hamilton, New York. I double major in Computer Science and Economics. 

Dhruv: I am a Graduate Student at Stevens Institute of Technology, studying Data Mining, Machine Learning, and Algorithms.  

Q: What ADP Innovation Center were you working out of?  

Aniyah: I went to the Alpharetta office in Georgia. 

Rose: I was in the ADP Roseland office in New Jersey!

Dhruv: My internship was at the ADP Parsippany Center in New Jersey.  

Q: What did you enjoy during your internship at ADP? 

Aniyah: As a Web Development Intern, I enjoyed enhancing the ADP Carrier Integrations tile with my team to display helpful information for users. 

Rose: Although this was my first time in New Jersey, I enjoyed its convenient location near major cities, abundant amenities, and opportunities for professional growth. The welcoming associates and interns at the Roseland office made working at ADP a delightful experience! 

Dhruv: I was grateful for my leader, Lijia's guidance under the Data Engineering team. It was an excellent opportunity for me to work with other computer scientists and engineers on multiple projects.

Q: What skills/technologies did you utilize? 

Aniyah: I worked with the updated Waypoint Design System, utilized JavaScript for various components on the tile, and updated the backend logic using Java and Eclipse STS. During the internship, I also used React.js, Redux.js, Spring Boot, and Postman API.  

Rose: I applied programming, computing skills, and critical thinking mindsets in business settings. 

Dhruv: Some skills I used included Bitbucket, Azure Databricks, Data Science, and Python.

Q: What was your favorite thing about your working location? 

Aniyah: I enjoyed working with the ADP Delphinus Team in an Agile/Scrum environment. I also loved how collaborative and social the office is. It's always fun not working from home because you hear the conversation in person, and the ideas transfer much faster.  

Rose: The people at ADP! I had the pleasure of meeting with ADP's associates at the Grace Hopper Conference last October, and I am thankful for all the support and guidance I have received from ADP ever since. 

Dhruv: My favorite thing was the ability to connect with other interns in my location. We were able to bond over lunch outside, as well as in productive workshops during the day. I learned so much over the summer!  

Q: Ok, let’s shift things outside of work. If you could travel anywhere for your PTO, where would you go?

Aniyah: For me, it's either DC or St. Augustine, Florida! 

Rose: My favorite vacation spot during the summer is my friend's parents’ cottage north of Rochester, New York. It offers a peaceful summer getaway where I can reconnect with nature and enjoy the tranquility away from city life. 

Dhruv: Europe is my dream vacation spot, and if it's for a dream weekend getaway, I'd say Atlantic City!  

Thank you, Aniyah, Rose, and Dhruv, for your hard work and dedication!
