Q1: Why did you choose to intern at GE Capital?

Sangaamaa: GE Capital is one of the most successful financial products and services providers offering very convenient and flexible deals to businesses that are in need of cash flow. As a Mongolian, I thought this would be a great opportunity to learn how loaning to businesses works, since Mongolian businesses need a large amount of investments and financial products.

Q2: What are some of your projects/responsibilities at the internship?

Q4: What was the biggest challenge you faced during your internship and what did you do to overcome it?

Sangaamaa: The biggest challenge was to keep up with the pace of the office. Plus, with every step I took, there was something I did not understand or know, so I had to learn new things, too.

Q5: Please tell us your future goals or your plans after graduation.

Sangaamaa: In the future, as a responsible citizen of Mongolia, I want to open an international trading company so I can attract as much FDI to the domestic economy as possible while creating as many jobs as possible.

Q6: How do you envision your internship experience helping you in the future?

Sangaamaa: I have learned how to analyze companies' situations by reading their financials and operations. I am sure the internship experience will help me at every stage of my career.

Q7: Would you recommend this internship to other TUJ students?

Sangaamaa: During the internship, you will gain not only knowledge in finance but also insights of very smart people around you. It will help your decision making in the future and so many other things.
