After a month full of intense professional experiences, it was time for reflection, meaningful exchange – and a healthy dose of inspiration. At the invitation of Autopay S.A., we gathered at their Sopot office to reflect together on the first weeks of the Leopolis for Future internship program.

The seminar brought together 15 interns representing fields such as law, IT, medicine, economics, accounting, and political science.

Together with their mentors, they shared early successes, surprises, and the lessons already learned.

Here are some of the key takeaways that resonated during the meeting:

• Crises at work are just tasks to complete. Treat them as opportunities, not catastrophes.

• LinkedIn is your visa to the professional world. Don’t be afraid to build your presence.

• Don’t be afraid to knock – even on closed doors. Sometimes a “no” is the beginning of a “yes.

• Communicate your needs. Your supervisor isn’t a mind reader.

• Relationships are like plants – they need watering. Even just once a year.

• Ignore labels. Do your thing. And do it well.

• Respect yourself. Your worth isn’t defined by your city – but by how you see yourself.

A heartfelt thank-you to Autopay S.A. for your generous hospitality and support during the opening of the 11th edition of Leopolis for Future.

Your kindness made this gathering truly special!
