    Your Impressions

  • 6. To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?
  • I enjoyed my placement as it has taught me a lot but I think more support could be given. As a sales associate you don't get as much responsibility as other interns as colleagues like to keep interns away from their customers.

  • 8. What advice would you give to others applying to SAP
  • I would advise you to take into consideration the location as it is in Feltham which is tricky to get too if you live outside of Feltham. Be confident and yourself, it is more about what you skills you can develop over experience youve already got.
