    The Role

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

    • I really enjoyed the work I completed. There was a lot of responsibility & I was challenged every day, but there was also a good support network.

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

    • The recognition culture at Intel is really good. You are doing work of real value, so it's natural that if you do a good job, you get recognition for that.

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

    • Support network at Intel is really good. If you ask for help you will get it, but you're also left alone when you need to own something.

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

    • In my role I was busy most days due to the nature of it, but there were opportunities to increase workload efficiency so I was able to reduce my normal workload after a while. I could then use this extra bandwidth to pick up other responsibilities.

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

    • At Intel you are treated as a full time employee when it comes to responsibility, but there's still a support network when you need it.

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

    • I have learned a lot of good transferrable skills, but a lot of what I learned at Intel was industry specific.

    5/5
  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?

    5/5
  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    • Pretty good - for the south of England my rent was low

    5/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • Not great - it's not a uni town so going out was less student oriented

    3/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • Yes - plenty of things to get involved in. eg. sports
