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

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

    4/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • 2 months into my placement i was already providing board updates. 6 months I was owning projects and various weekly FC tasks. By the end of it I was able to help out and be knowledgeable on all areas of the business

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

    • Not much, doing a maths and finance degree a lot of the stuff i was doing doens't really add value to my degree. however i never want to go into acedemia, I've always wanted to go into business. so not overly bothered about this other than may be tricky to get back into swing of it all
