    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
  • Yes, I built up a lot of trust with my manager through my placement where I was given more and more responsibility as time went on. I started with only answering datasheet and drawing request enquiries where I would need his supervision to send responses to being able to assign emails to members in the team, take on a variety for different enquiries and send my responses with no supervision.

    Support & Guidance

  • 4. How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?

    Your Impressions

  • 6. To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?
  • I enjoyed my placement very much. I learnt a lot of skills, developed a few skills I already had previously and there was never a moment where I had nothing to do or was repeating the same work all the time. The only thing I would change is have a few more opportunities to do things outside of the office.
