    Hi Suresh,
    From my experience at Nokia, the trainees who truly stand out are those who combine curiosity with initiative: they don’t just finish their tasks, they try to understand the broader context and look for ways to add value. They communicate clearly and proactively, ask smart questions early, and take full ownership of their work, even when challenges arise. What also sets them apart is their ability to learn quickly, adapt to new tools or feedback, and collaborate naturally with the team. This blend of attitude, responsibility, and eagerness to grow consistently distinguishes exceptional trainees from the rest.
    Hope I could help you
