I have learned an incredible amount since I started. I can see the progress and how much I have actually learned and that's very motivating.

Meet a former Insight graduate:
Elisabeth works as a consultant within BI solutions and reports at Amesto TechHouse, where she has been since she finished her master's thesis in spring 2021. It has been a learning curve with many exciting projects and clients. The team in particular is important and is a major motivational factor.
A typical working day consists largely of building reports and analyzes in Power BI.
- Right now I am 100% leased to a customer where the goal is to create business insights, with dashboards and dynamic, self-updating reports. They are used as a basis for decisions in the company. Some use the reports just to get an overview, while others take an extract to use the data on their own.
The days as a consultant are different. Some days Elisabeth works from the Amesto office in Kvaernerbyen, and other days, such as when she works on a customer project, she physically sits outside with the customer.
- We are building a new BI platform, with associated reports and data warehouse. So, what I do changes a little every day depending on where I am in the project. Now, we have just cleaned up a customer base and gathered it into a Power BI report. When the customer is happy, so am I.
- Elisabeth has worked in Amesto for just over a year, and one of the most useful things from her studies was about learning how she can acquire new knowledge.
- I am not afraid if I am given a task that I do not immediately know how to solve. I get it when I first sit down and dare to jump into challenges that are unfamiliar. The answer must not come within two minutes.
The learning part is a major motivational factor for Elisabeth.
- I have learned an incredible amount since I started. I can see the progress and how much I've actually learned and that's very motivating. When I started during last fall, it felt like I didn't know anything, but that changed quickly, she says.

I also have to acknowledge my colleagues, who are a very big reason why I enjoy work. It's always nice to come to the office, and easy to ask others for help and advice. It's a very open culture for sharing.
