I liked the SOS challenge a lot! It gave me a chance to make up for the internship that was cancelled and expand my network and analysis skills.
What I wish was different
I wish the challenge instructions had been a bit more clear, as we had members of our team who had to switch roles.
Advice
Get to know your team members and build relationships with them!

S.O.S. Challenge Participant
June - July 2020 • Indianapolis, IN
What I liked
I liked the flexibility to create your own solution and the team aspect of working with people from different backgrounds.
What I wish was different
I wish the challenge would have been a longer period of time and I wish they would have announced more winners besides just 1st place.
Advice
I learned how to work in a team to come up with a solution with limited constraints. I think being able to follow a schedule and be flexible to changes as they progress is important.
