Orientation
Throughout the first half of my internship, I have had the opportunity to learn a lot about Facebook, Facebook Reality Labs, and Orion. There have been plenty of helpful orientation sessions, Design Camp classes, and AR/VR training lessons. Amidst the sea of orientation material, introductory 1:1s, meetings, and live streams, I managed to get myself up to speed with the team and the product to make more informed design decisions in my work.
Internship Highlights
Some key highlights of my internship till now include:
- Getting to know everyone in the team as well as fellow interns across FRL and cross-functioning teams.
