    Your Impressions

  • 6. To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?
  • My placement year at Prysmian has flown by, and this is due to both the working environment within the office and the variety of tasks that I was completing. Every day was different to the other, and I felt that my work was actually valued by my team. I have been able to push myself in both my commercial and marketing role, and use software that i had no prior experience of. Throughout my placement, i couldn't have asked for a more supportive team.
