    4/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

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

    • As mentioned earlier, you need to be very proactive as the managers are not always available and you need to show initiative and get on with your own work. However, my managers were very supportive in regards to my development and really tried to help me with my future career
