    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
  • After learning processes, my manager gave me full autonomy over decision making in regards to both internal and external orders. This allowed me to showcase my new skills, and reach out to my wider team to assist me with day to day tasks. I think that being allowed to independently work has increased my confidence.
