Hear about students’ and graduates’ stories

I moved from California to Milan to pursue my MBA a start a career in Europe. The onboarding experience was easy - completely done digitally - and I felt immediately welcomed. I completed 8 months of internship before I required a permanent contract for visa purposes, and Prysmian was able to not only expedite the process, but also provide me with assistance for completing my documents. I never once felt belittled for being an intern, in fact, I only felt presented with opportunities and trust. I love working in a global company where people support each other no matter the distance!

Samantha Williams, Internal Communication Specialist, Milan HQ

In my two years at Prysmian Group I have had the great opportunity to learn by doing. The word “Innovation”, that once seemed quite abstract to me, started to become something concrete. In fact, I had the opportunity to explore and implement digital solutions for business growth and to improve our customers and colleagues’ experience through an enthusiastic digital journey. The great purpose of creating a more sustainable future is the main driver that motivates me. It's a big ambition and I am proud of being a little part of the puzzle that will make that future closer.

Laura Magrì, Digital Solution Architect JR, Milan HQ

When I started my Master's Degree in Electrical Engineering, I discovered the importance of power cable technology for transporting energy. So, since Prysmian is the market leader in this sector, I applied for a student opportunity in 2020. After 18 months in maintenance, I switched to process engineering and R&D. During this time, I helped to digitize the maintenance department by helping to set up the SAP Plant Maintenance module. While now, I am working on increasing the efficiency and cost reduction of a machine. In April 2022, I finally joined the Build the Future-Empower Your Community Graduate Program and I am excited for what’s coming next!
