    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • My role involved helping the planners with their projects and reports. On a more administritive side of things, I had daily and weekly reports to do, keeping the offices and other areas according to 5S standards and communicating with people from various departments


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • I feel like I've become more independent and more responsible, since I participated in various projects through the course of my internship. I have also learned a lot of different software and methods they usually use. I also feel like my communications skills have improved since I speak with people on a daily basis Additionally my knowledge in automotive engineering has improved a lot

Though there were the odd people that didn't really care much, but I guess it's normal in these types of working environments
