    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • Every day was different and varied, ranging form helping to fill out valuation forms to writing reports on findings and going out on site visits. During the day there would often be a zoom meeting giving you insight into all the different sectors allowing you to learn more about different areas and ask any questions which was really helpful. Throughout the week you had a graduate mentor, who help you with tasks and provide insight.
