Gaoliang Lin is an associate consultant at SprintlyWorks. He’s pursuing his master studies in International Management from CEMS. Lin has been working on two projects at SprintlyWorks & here’s what he has to say about his experience:
“My journey with SprintlyWorks started with one sharing experience from my friend who had worked here. It highly aroused my interest towards SprintlyWorks that exclusively designs for master’s students worldwide. I firmly believed working with SprintlyWorks can help me to grow ambitiously as a professional consultant, where I am able to apply and polish my desktop research and analyzing skills that are of great importance for consultants.
Currently, I am closely working with two clients and taking charge of one of them. Compared with my other professional experiences, working with SprintlyWorks gives me more freedom and autonomy, which I value the most.
A typical day of mine starts at 8 AM, which is normal for consultants, with communication with my supervisor and teammates about the project progress and discussing which direction we should go for next. After several hours of working on assigned tasks, I have internal meetings with my teammates. Receiving feedback or answers from them, I continue working until the end of the day. One thing needs to be mentioned is that there are some meetings either with experts or with clients instantly scheduled, and therefore, always be prepared to ‘disruption’ from these two sides
During my leisure time, I spent hours in the gym to keep myself fit and energetic for everyday work. Relaxing music, such as Jazz or Bossa Nova, cannot be forgotten for every night that needs to work.”
