Interns@AutoCom

Hi @ all, My name is Niko, I’m the new intern at AutoCom. I’m here for almost 4 weeks now and owe you my first blog post. First of all: I’m 24 years old, from Regensburg in Germany and I’m studying business administration.

Famous Doughnuts I will definitely miss the AutoCom team, my work in the office and even the fact driving to Bloomfield through Woodward Ave every morning. It was a pleasure to meet you and to work with all of you together. Even on busy days, we had a great time and fun!
