Success Stories
Shaun Bissessarsingh
“Working at Angostura has offered me the opportunity to develop as a HR professional. As an intern I was able to gain a holistic experience to HR and its contribution to the business, from recruitment, engagement, succession planning and so much more. My internship has truly given me a better appreciation for my field of study and my career in the world of HR. What I valued most about my experience is by being a part of the HR Team I was introduced to all operations of the business which gave me clear understanding of Angostura and the importance of HR towards the business.
I am currently a HR Generalist at Angostura responsible for various HR functions that pose an essential role in the department and the business.”

“The GWI programme provided me with valuable hands-on experience and allowed me to grow and develop as an engineer. I was able to work side by side with engineers in various disciplines and be involved in the engineering process as it goes back and forth from documentation and meetings to projects out in the field. I believe everyone should do this internship because it is a great opportunity to apply the knowledge you gained in school to a professional work setting.”

Kerlene Lee
“My yearlong internship at Angostura Limited was a great experience! During my tenure with the HSSE Team I became well acquainted with applying what I had learnt in the classroom to real safety situations but was by no means limited to only safety. I was afforded the opportunity of a first-hand look into Security and the Health and Wellness aspects of the business. In the office, a very friendly atmosphere existed and the close mentoring and assistance from employees was one of the highlights. It solidified what I would want to pursue in the future as I now know how much I value and enjoy the practical aspects which also expands into both the project management and communication fields. The internship was an extremely enriching experience and the insights I gained will influence my future professional career.”
