Responsibilities
I was given a fair amount of responsibility to complete projects independently that others within the team relied on. However, any work had oversight before going to more senior members of the company.
Support & Guidance
Received a lot of support and guidance from [This section of the comment has been removed by a member of the RateMyPlacement Team because it did not meet our site terms and conditions] my manger and wider team - any questions I asked were answered quickly and I was always supported on any task I wasn't confident on.
Culture
Company culture was very friendly and welcoming. had many opportunities both inside and outside of work to socialise and get to know others in the business.
Your Impressions
I very much enjoyed the experience and learning new skills. The lack of in person interaction was a drawback but other than that I feel I learnt a lot and enjoyed the experience.
