Nicole, the customer experience rockstar<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Management Engineering student Nicole<\/strong> aced her internship with Shopee’s Operations team after being tasked with a super cool project: revamping Shopee’s chatbot service to make it even smarter and more helpful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Basically, I had to help make the chatbot understand users better,” Nicole explains. “So I had to put myself in the shoes of the users and figure out how the chatbot can be more helpful and useful,”  she shared. More than the backend work, Nicole\u2019s project was all about understanding why things matter. “It made me realize the impact of what I create. It wasn\u2019t just about codes, it’s about giving users a smoother experience,\u201d Nicole says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And as if being a Shopee Apprentice intern wasn’t already enough of a flex, she even went on to improve processes for SPX Express for her senior year capstone project, helping automate processes across hubs nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
