Hey Abhilash,

Good luck with your interview! Supply chain is very important for Lenovo business and we did pretty
good, ranking top 25 supply chain company in world according to Gartner. There are many aspects in
Lenovo Supply Chain, including sourcing, logistics, inventory planning, etc. I'm not sure which area this
internship focus on and if you're interested in that area. Anyway, let me know if you have more specific
questions.
Good luck!

Hi Abhilash - congratulations on getting an interview! 

Yes, I was a GSC intern in 2019. I would suggest being familiar with your resume and being prepared to
answer some basic behavioral questions in the interview. If you can have some stories and personal
experiences to share then you will do great. Good luck!

My background consists of leading global operations throughout the

world including China and consistently implementing new
procurement, supply, and sourcing strategies which focus on cost
control and profitability. I excel in taking the initiative to capitalize
upon new opportunities for improvement which have created
hundreds of millions of dollars in cost savings.

That’s nice. Which division?

I’d suggest preparing a little bit on the company background and try to offer a fresh approach to
problems. Speak about data automation and optimizing process everyone at Lenovo likes that.
You’ll be working cross functionally with different teams. So focus on being a team player and a friendly
person. Try and resonate with the company culture
That’s all I can suggest 😊
All the very best!

Based on my work as an intern, got a part-time role with the

Customer Quality Engineering team. Juggling between class and
work, managed to effectively communicate quality performance to
the customers and gather and analyze failure data for the suppliers
thereby closing the loop of supply chain quality. Also, learned about
the MA logistics and quality maintenance across Lenovo's three
manufacturing sites. Became comfortable interacting with
customers as my understanding of Supply Chain processes
strengthened.

good, I have your email, I sent a couple of emails to people I work with daily that should be able to tell
me who runs that program. 
FYI Lenovo is a 60 ish B$ company, 45B from the laptop company, ISD.
15B from the servers & storage company, ISG. Both of those feed into ISO, Kirk is the President of that,
so he essentialls runs the show.
I am a sales guy for Public Sector, for ISG. Since there is such a global shortage in inventory I do talk to
customer supply advocates (supply chain) these days. Lenovo is really the leader in this industry in
supply chain as we have evolved into a global manufacturer. It would be a great place to get to if that is
your field.  I will let you know who I reach, hopefully I will. Good Luck

Fast pace constant change
