    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?
  • Extremely free and friendly environment, everyone is very welcoming so you slot into the "Intel way of life" immediately!!

    5/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?
  • Everyone is respected regardless of whether you are just a student or not. You become a crucial part of Intel and people will request things that you can do that no one else can do.

    5/5

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?
  • You get guided to a certain point and then you are on your own to work it out, which is something i like as work then becomes a challenge and you are given a chance to prove yourself, and to show your manager that you can cope with things without full guidance.

    5/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • Depending on how many projects I am doing then it can vary from an extremely busy period to a slightly quieter period. Overall it is a nice balance. Much better than being always busy or never being busy

    5/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?
  • I have the freedom to take on my own projects and it is expected that you create your own projects to "give something back" to Intel and to show what you can do. Intel really do trust you and your abilities as i was given some great responsibilities such as organizing events on my own and managing the CEO meeting schedule!

    5/5

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • My skills have developed at lot and i have learnt so much about myself. you learn to be independent in a work place and to be more pro-active about you role. You get into a good routine and have many opportunities to excel and develop your skills

    5/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?
  • Exciting, everyone is always so happy and always willing to help. there is always something going on in the office, people really do work hard and play hard

    5/5

  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?
  • So good you forget you are an intern and you just get stuck in with the corporate environment

    5/5

  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
  • Any training you want to do is paid for by Intel. there is a wide range of things to choose from so you are never out of things to learn more about.
