The Role
Although it is not the job i would want to have in my future career, i discovered a lot about the world of work
Depends on the workload
For my studies, not so much...Once I graduate it will help with various professional skils such as risk management, setting priorites, meetting deadlines etc..
The Company
Always a great atmosphère even in stressfull times
I am sort of free to discuss with my placement manager what i want to do in my area of actions, then we can decide how I can work on something interests me. The university did not help so much but at the same time I did not want my university to slow dow my progress at work, therefore i rarely asked for help. The university did a great job, it was just sometimes difficult to communicate with
I was given many training sessions, the same as the ones my colleagues were intended. I was also invited to participate to several extra-work events within the group
