I would like to thank @pistillostefano for telling us his story. Especially because he put himself at the center as a man, therefore with big desires that may not be just work.
I agree with what Jack Ma (@cbrugo ) says because I have always lived “in the middle”, also as @pistillostefano I was the student representative at Polito and welcoming the freshmen. I found that being at 360 degrees in university helped me even in front of the study, trivially because with those same friends, in addition to the “things to do”, we also proposed to do well what we were asked for more, that is to study. during these years I have discovered how studying together is a huge help to stay in front of books not as an thing that isolates us, but as a thing that helps to stay in the world!
In another Jack Ma speech, he said how useful it is to follow a mentor in the early years of work. I am now thinking about where to go for the internship next year and in choosing the place I realized I was looking for a charming maestro to follow, rather than the big name of a company, because returning to the @stefanopistillo testimony, I want to grow up and become an adult, before I make a career.
I suggest everyone to follow the cyberminds.life instagram page (https://www.instagram.com/cyberminds.life/), created by a former student of poliTO who has made a career in Google and who tries to help students enter the world of work, especially by doing interviews with his friends that (like him) have something great to tell about their work and their career! (first of all as men)
Happy Easter to all!

My name is Elena Becchis and i’m attending the Master in Engineering and Management at Polito.<span class=”Apple-converted-space”> </span>
I have the desire that these last years of university are an opportunity to discover fascinating experiences and people, to prepare myself for the world of work by having a broad look. I would like to do something great in life, I don’t know how this will materialize, but the conferences and the Silicon Valley tour seem to me the perfect opportunity to meet passionate people with this same desire.
In these years of university I realized that meeting people, who put the models we study in class into practice, is an opportunity to rediscover the passion for what I study. For this reason, together with some friends of the students association “Lavori in Corso”, in November 2019 I organized “Polimpresa”, an initiative brought 400 students of Polito visiting 16 local companies such as Amazon, General Motors, Pininfarina, Michelin. More than 2000 students had enrolled, but for the first “edition” there were only those places, this is to say that visiting companies “at home” is a great added value.
In recent years I have studied many case studies on Silicon Valley companies and it would be nice to see live how they are structured and how they work, in the place where they grew up!
Thanking you for the opportunity, I hope to meet you soon, even if only virtually!
Elena Becchis
