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

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

    • I had to do my own research and self-learn on some parts of the project, but I enjoyed the process and I think I was given just the right amount of support.

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

    • Not too busy in general; occasionally I had to stay for an extra hour to finish off the work, but it is totally manageable. I also never run out of things to do since there are always ways to improve on my project.

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

    • I was given one main project during my internship. I had simulated client meetings every two weeks. I was not given any real projects, but what I did was very closely related to the work of the team.

    4/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • I learnt a lot about coding, especially in C# and machine learning. I realised that I am really interested in it and I am currently looking for tech jobs after graduation.

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