    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
  • I've been given quite a bit of responsibility. I've been working solo on some projects. None of my work is 'checked' so it was important that I got it right before giving out any information that I may obtain from it. - Some of my work was used to support budget needs for large costly repairs.

Due to the pandemic I had to be very comfortable in just e-mailing or calling someone I've never met - 100% of the time they couldn't be more helpful
