    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • Working at RCI was a really great experience, I managed to learn a lot in a short space of time and enjoy my time there whilst doing so. You really get the best of both worlds.

    5/5

    • 5/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • I had a great balance of work and never felt over/under worked. My team members were really supportive in offering to help if I felt overwhelmed with work and vice versa.

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

    • In terms of responsibility, it grew fairly throughout my placement, I started taking on more advanced tasks after about 2 months and felt like I could handle them. It was nice to be eased in to the company at a pace that suited me.

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

    • The training was great and industry specific within finance and the automotive industry, however it has given me skills that range far wider than that as well.

  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?

    • The organization was great and we had a full induction when we first joined, this consisted of team building as well as learning about the wider company. We were given clear instructions when we started and I never felt forgotten about as I perhaps would of in a larger company.

    5/5
  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?

  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    5/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?
