Absolutely loved it I was given a lot of responsibility and was trusted to do my work as I saw fit From good results in my first few months I asked to approach some difficult tasks that the rest of my team handled They agreed that I could gradually ma
I really enjoyed working at Ford and did feel emotionally attached to the company at my time of leaving The one bad thing I would say working here is the slow start it took about 4 months for me to get anything out of the placement
Over the course of the placement I was involved in numerous projects where I made a valuable contribution to the research and development of products in the Powertrain department The benefit of this was that I experienced all aspects of design and testin
This internship was one of the best experiences in my life I had a chance to meet an amazing team and work along with market analysts in order to test a new system
I was based at Dunton and the working environment was good and most of the people were friendly and helpful I was given quite a bit of responsibility and plenty of opportunities but still sometimes found myself slightly bored
Cannot put on a price on the experience As two of the interns set up an intern group we managed to see sides of the business we would have never of got to see such as blue light operations and Dagenham Diesel Plant Also the work I produced had real wor
I really enjoyed my internship Highlights included sitting in board meetings and brought along to weekly meetings along with projects that I lead
The internship gave me a great chance to understand what working life is like I had the chance to get involved in so many different areas outside of the department I was based in which made for a well rounded internship
My placement year felt like a real job which made the experience more fulfilling
Being very interested in the automotive industry working at Ford was a joy I learnt a great deal about the industry through the wide range of tasks and projects I completed at Ford
Very enjoyable and variety of tasks
Not necessarily negative or fully positive but it was an eye opener to what life is like within an engineering firm
Very interesting company to work for A lot of enjoyable events and extra schemes to help you
Overall Ford is very supportive of employees and treat placement students no differently The work given was challenging and interesting
I was very pleased with the fact that I was thrown straight into a proper job and not treated like a lesser member of the team at any point
Luckily I was rotated during my placement so the enjoyment was getting to know new systemsprocesses in new roles A lot of my tasks were challenging I and got a real feel of a full time role
Awesome place to work I really enjoyed my time here and got a lot out of the placement
I really enjoyed my summer placement with Ford I felt very independent as I was set tasks to complete with little supervision once it had been explained what to do
