  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?
  • They really helped me clarify my doubts by involving myself in the work load and giving me responsibility. Every time I was given a task they explained it well but they also were available for further questions. I properly noticed they cared about my developing.

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • I started this internship with a weak background. Thanks to both the training the received and the skills I developed by working I feel to have learnt a lot of new stuff and I am entirely sure to go back to Uni to complete my final year with more capabilities.
