Overview
Member of team, but have a project I'm responsible for and smaller side projects I'm involved with, am supported by an experience member of the team as well. Also attend a variety of internal and external meetings from different aspects of the company which helps understand how different departments work and interact.
Skills
Apart from technical skills. Project and time management development have been helpful
Responsibilities
Yes, although supported when needed i'm responsible for an existing project the team had. And am also responsible for a sub system project that affects the whole team.
Support & Guidance
Quite a lot. Before starting I was assigned a buddy on the graduate scheme for any non technical/project based problems. Within my role line manager is helpful and approach able, he also assigned two experienced members of the team to mentor me and build un skills and confidences. Other members of the team have also been helpful and friendly, everyone very approachable and supportive but not patronising .
Culture
Company culture is very nice. There are ECP specific programs to get involved with and help to meet people. There is a sports club and other groups you can join if you wish as well. Strong diversity initiatives, which are really helpful, supportive and easy to talk to. A group of placement students formed an informal group to go out and meet up as well.
Your Impressions
So far been really enjoyable.
Yes
Look at all the different placement options and think about which one suits you best. Don't be afraid to ask questions both in email and at the assessment centre & interview.
