    The Role

    3/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • Unfortunately, my manager was away for the first 2 weeks of my placement. However, when they were around I was very supported.

    3/5

    • The right amount of responsibility for the things I had to do.

    3/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
