For me, the insight was not at all enjoying. I was promised a prominent role in doing tasks but I was rather pushed to the side and not allowed to do much. I took on more of an observer role and this was not very fun and it felt like a waste of time.

I really enjoyed my work placement overall. The main factors that contributed to this were the general office environment, skills that I was able to gain and work that I undertook, colleagues, location and general social experience.
The placement was really interesting at times and the opportunities for shadowing and personal development days are excellent. I undertook around 3 weeks of shadowing throughout the year on placement which was great to understand where I would like to wor...

I did like the placement I was working on as I found the work stimulating and the company was diverse and high-pressured, which I enjoy. My boss was a big harsh to me at times and I didn't feel as though there were always the right support networks in pla...
