About me |
|
School career
I am Joppe Sterckx, a student at Heilig Hart-college in Heist-Op-Den-Berg. I have been at this school for my entire school career. I started in modern sciences, which I did for 2 years. Then I decided to study Business and IT in the 3rd and 4th year. After Christmas in the 4th year, I finally came to the office and retail which is now known as Office. I am still here today. |
Fictional company
This year, we have been given the task of running a fictional company with my fellow pupils. This company is called "Green7" and this counts for a large part for our evaluation at the end of the year. There are different departments such as: sales, administration, warehouse-expedition, invoicing... But I am in the purchasing department, which means that I am involved in the purchase of goods. |
Internships
I have done several internships in the past 3 years. In the 5th year, I had an internship with the environmental department in Putte. This internship was not very educational as I was still quite young and therefore not yet optimally familiar with all the complicated and confidential information. In the 6th year, I did internships at Deckers N.V. and Vastgoed de Cat for six months. The internship at Deckers was a logistics internship where I really enjoyed doing internships for the first time. After that came Vastgoed de Cat, where I held an administrative position and learned quite a few things. This year I am again an intern at Deckers N.V., but this time on the administrative side. If you'd like to learn more, check out the "internship (Stage)" section.

My character
Many people tell me I'm a pleasant person and I'm sociable. My intern companies also always say that I am a hard worker. I am also told sometimes that I can come across as a bit nonchalant. This is usually the case at school, but there are reasons for that. |
Further Studies
I have plans to continue studying in college after I graduate from HHC. I haven't decided yet, but my preference is for psychology or real estate. I also have no idea yet in which college they teach these studies or where I am going to study them. |
In my spare time
In my free time, I go out with friends and have a social life. I often go to bars or sometimes to parties and festivals. If I'm not out with friends, I usually sit at home and play computer games with friends or alone. I don't work in my spare time yet, but I have plans on doing so. During the Christmas holidays and the summer holidays I'm planning to work at the Spar warehouse in Mechelen. |
