Product Compliance Intern Review

I was given multiple projects throughout the year that focused on assessing the impacts of legislation in different markets. I had to review the legislation present, determine what obligations/ requirements the company would need to fulfil to enable market access and then implement a process to support this.

I have learnt new skills in how to review legislation, I had no previous legal experience before this placement year. I have also developed my skills on excel to create more complex working tools on excel using more complex calculations. I have also learnt how to use Power Bi this year to analyse data and create custom reports.

I was given lots of responsibility on placement, but was always supported if needed. I was given my own projects to run from day one, and was asked to complete as-hoc requests as needed throughout the year which I was in charge of completing.

I was given lots of support during my placement. I had access to multiple training materials during the year to upskill myself on any key topics, but I was also given various in house training sessions. For each project I ran, i had a key point of contact if needed, who would answer any questions/ queries quickly or direct me to someone who could help further.

The company culture seemed good. I was on placement during covid, so there were fewer clubs and activities on offer, but in normal times there is lots of company and department wide event available.

I really enjoyed my placement, and would happily work there in the future if offered a job.
