The Role
Yes I did enjoy my work placement it was very interesting workin with the colleagues there and they were very well mannered and it was a really good placement I must say and really fun and enjoyable experience.
I feeled very welcomed by the colleagues. They welcomed me very nicely just like family and they showed me around made me feel like I had already been there for a long time. They were very polite and showed me around. Yes a very enjoyable experience I must say.
Yes I was given a lot of help and everything they helped me around showed me what I needed to do if I ever got stuck they were very helpful and showed me around the university and made me feel very welcomed.
I was very busy on a daily basis doing activities and things and meeting some of the students. It was a very enjoyable experience and glad I chose Kingston university. I was very busy doing things with the colleagues.
I was given a lot of responsibility as I was new there which I showed them how amazing I could be in my placement and show them the hard worker I am.
I developed my communication skills by talking a lot to my supervisors and colleagues about things I was stuck on. I also developed my administrative skills such as typing much quicker when doing work which I thought was very amazing and received a lot of training to make the work life more comfortable.
The Company
The atmosphere for the office was great. Everyone was very nice and welcomed me with great manners and it was such a amazing experience to be with the colleagues I was with.
It was very organised and it was done very early and I knew what I was doing for the work placement and I enjoyed it very much.
They gave me a lot of personal training to develop my skills and communication and make me a more sociable person so I could talk much more better in front of large audiences.

The future employment prospects are very high as I very enjoyed this company and the my colleagues and everyone was happy with my progress.
The Culture
Yes they was a good social scene as we asked each other questions and got to know each other better and talk about our weaknesses and strengths.
Socialising was good as I talked a lot to people in the area and cost of living was very cheap as I lived at home because Kingston wasn’t far from where I lived which therefore made my cost much more cheaper.
Night life was awesome as I got to visit different events, go to clubs, socialise with my colleagues which was a very enjoyable and memorable experience.
Yes there was a sports day which was very fun and all my colleagues enjoyed it and it was a very fun experience to participate in something like this.
