“Ik hoorde over Vesting Finance via een kennis die er al jaren met veel plezier werkt. Omdat ik op zoek was naar een stagebedrijf, besloot ik meer over Vesting Finance op te zoeken. Toen kwam ik tot de conclusie dat de professionele maar toegankelijke werksfeer, gecombineerd met de mogelijkheid om direct impact te maken in een relevant werkveld, Vesting Finance voor mij de ideale plek maakt om mezelf verder te ontwikkelen.

Na mijn bezoek aan de website en het versturen van een open sollicitatie, werd ik al snel uitgenodigd voor een gesprek. Voor ik het wist, had ik een stageplek gevonden en mocht ik zelfs, voorafgaand aan de stage, in mijn vrije uren van school al aan het werk op kantoor!

Mijn afstudeeronderzoek richt zich op het onderzoeken hoe voorspellende AI kan bijdragen aan een efficiënter incassoproces bij Vesting Finance. Hiermee hoop ik een waardevolle bijdrage te leveren aan de innovatie binnen de organisatie. Ik hoop dat deze stage mij helpt mijn kennis en vaardigheden te verbreden, vooral op het gebied van data-analyse, AI en de financiële sector. Daarnaast zie ik het als een kans om praktijkervaring op te doen en mezelf verder te ontwikkelen binnen een professionele omgeving. Voor Vesting Finance wil ik een frisse blik en nieuwe inzichten bieden, terwijl ik tegelijkertijd leer van de expertise binnen het bedrijf.”

Ismael completed an internship with us from Windesheim University of Applied Sciences in Almere, the Netherlands, where he was studying Commercial Economics. Within the Secured Servicing Team, Ismael researched how customers experience our service, or Customer Journey.

Ismael: ‘I came into contact with Vesting Finance through my teacher, who told me about the opportunities within the organisation. I then contacted Lodewijk (Corporate Recruiter) and was soon able to get acquainted. During this acquaintance with Stefan and Yvonne, I was immediately struck by the flexibility and trust Vesting Finance places in its employees.From the very first day I felt welcome and I was immersed in a collegial and supportive working environment. My goals at Vesting Finance are to gain insight into the dynamics of business and to further develop my communication skills. In addition, I like to expand my professional network, something I will certainly also realise here. At the end of my internship period, my result will be to present an advice which can help Vesting Finance to take their services to the next level.’
