- Interview experts and stakeholders to identify issues and form hypotheses on solutions

**“Starting an internship at Hilti’s Corporate Development was a great decision: Working on projects that shape Hilti's future means you get to make a meaningful impact even in a short period of time. The highlight for me, though, was the rapid learning curve from working in a diverse team of former strategy consultants in a collaborative & supportive environment, which exemplifies Hilti's people culture.”**
