  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    5/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • My work did not consist of strict deadlines; however my managers always made sure I had something to do. They kept refilling me with work, week by week. Enough to keep me on my toes and not too much where I would be too stressed

    5/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

More online training involved such as security measure and health and safety
