    The Role

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

    • I really enjoyed my work experience, I was given many opportunities and felt at home from day one of this placement. FDM is a really cool place to work and would advise it to all students as they expose you to the working world.

    5/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • I felt really valued to a good extent as I was trusted with many projects and was trusted to even leave the country on behalf of our company. Also I made many friends here and everyone was very nice.

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

    • Whenever I needed something or didn't know what to do I can just go to a manager and they would be able to help and support me when needed.

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

    • Very busy, especially with my role you have access to things others don't so many a times people contact you with various requests which you must complete within a given time.

    3/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • I was given great responsibility during my experience and was given the chance to run many assessment centres by myself.

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

    • To a great extent it has given me greater knowledge on the working and business world. And will even effect me in other ways such as waking up at starting my day early since I'm pretty much used to doing that also.

    3/5

    The Culture
