    The Role

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

    • The internship was really interesting. I learnt a lot about translation as well as project management. I would recommend for those who wish to pursue a career involving languages and linguistics.

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

    • My colleagues were always helpful and appreciative of any work I did for them. All members of the company took the time to explain things to me if I was unsure and I felt that the work I did helped the company.

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

    • I was always fully briefed and had everything explained to me. If there was ever any confusion, I just had to ask.

    • Most days were busy given the volume of projects coming into the team but this meant that every day was different and there was no room for boredom! Of course, there were also quieter times but on the whole, most of the time there was work to be completed.
