My placement year was absolutely brilliant. In my opinion everyone should do a placement year if they have the opportunity. I was particularly fortunate to land a job with one of the brands I had a real passion for.
Really enjoyed the placement, as I was given a lot of responsibility and wide range of work that has given me a real insight into the working world.
I enjoyed the fast pace of both VW and the overall industry. The variety of work meant I was never bored and all of the people in the office are friendly and welcoming.
I thoroughly enjoyed my role at The VWG UK. It constantly challenged me which really helped me to grow throughout my year.
The work I did and the team I was around could not have been better and the work was extremely interesting although it helps if you are already interested in cars like I am.
A fantastic placement. A very involved job with high levels of detail. Hard work at times however very rewarding.
I really enjoyed my placement - it exceeded my expectations (which were high already!)
I really enjoyed it as I got a lot of valuable experience, however in the last view minutes I became very stressed as I was very busy so this put a slight negative on the experience.
Enjoyed the project work the most as this was more varied and challenging. I found working at Volkswagen Group Ltd both interesting and enjoyable because of the industry, work culture and environment.
I could never have predicted how much of a varied experience I would gain working in the Trade Parts department of Volkswagen Group UK.
The placement was thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish. I got to see various aspects of the automotive industry from attending brand conferences to working within a local sales centre and at each stage was welcomed and encouraged to thrive.
Absolutely great year, loved every minute!
I loved my job, I had some great experiences and made some great friends.
