    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.

    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
  • Plenty responsibility. In reality there is a hierarchy of employees at SAP but not once have I felt any less valuable than other colleagues. Being an intern has certainly not proved to mean we are bottom of the barrel. We’re all as responsible as each other.
