On 26 June 2024 the 1EHIF students happily accepted an invitation from Oracle to visit them at their impressive offices at DC Tower. On top of that, students met several members of the Oracle staff and thereby gained valuable insights into their day-to-day work life.

Starting off with an inspiring personal introduction by the EMEA-East Region Vice President Technology on the personal and interpersonal ingredients of a successful career, staff members shared precious stories about their daily life as an Oracle employee, highlighting the significance of teamwork and collaboration. To round off, students were shown a live demo on how GenAI can be seamlessly integrated into custom applications, making use of a real-life scenario that could be readily understood by everyone.

Very many thanks to Oracle for this great experience!

Finally, here comes a selection of student reviews:

“I really loved the way the presenters talked to us. Every time I had a question, I always got an understandable answer.”

“I really liked the hospitality and kindness of each and everyone. Plus, the speeches were really inspiring and motivating.”

“Getting to see the DC Tower building from the inside was really nice and an opportunity that not everyone is granted. It was also very interesting to converse with people working at the company. The presentations were inspiring and the presenters were very open to questions.”

“I was inspired by the presentations and stories. It motivated me to work on my skills and talents, but also the abilities I lack. Additionally, the whole atmosphere in the office was welcoming and relaxed.”
