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

    • I was able to work within different areas of the business, and overall I learned a lot about work environments and what I would like to achieve within my own work life. It is a great asset to my CV and truly helped me to hone in on my communicative and organisation skills. The nature of the client companies also (social housing organisations) exposed me to all sorts of interesting roles and I'm really glad that I did a placement here.
