    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • Really good internship, opportunities to move around and try new areas.

    5/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • Over time really get to know the team and network. Treated like one of the team rather than the intern.

    4/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • Alot of training at the begining and an intern hand over period where you learn the role alongside the previous intern. After that managers are always reachable for questions and willing to sit down with you if you have any concerns.

    4/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • There is always the option to take on more work. Managers try to make sure you have the right balance of work and don't expect you to have to stay late.

    5/5

    • Over time you get given more responsibilty as and when you have shown you can handle it and that you want it.

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • The skills I have learnt are really valuable. Its alot about your personal skills so organisation and problem solving which will help in any future job role. In terms of degree work it will help alot with my time management.
