The Role
I really enjoyed working at Bosch it was interesting and I was constantly learning. I had the chance to be part of different projects and deal with a variety of departments.
Professional but friendly and laid back environment
I was given guidance when I needed it but trusted responsibilities
its a peak season sort of industry I always had work but some times were busier than others.
I was given plenty of responsibility and trusted to complete a large project on my own
I chose the placement despite the fact that it was not particularly relevant to my degree and im glad i did!
The Company
Great atmosphere professional but laid back
I was the first intern in the department so it was somewhat trial and error
I got to go on a training day and learn about the products being made in the factory, I learned what was going on in different departments and I received some customer service training and SAP.
Company Parties/Events
I enjoyed working at Bosch and would be happy to work for them in future
The Culture
there are alot of social things going on I chose not to participate but was invited to do so
my rent was a little high but all in all not too bad
Im from a big city with a lot of night-life so Worcester naturally suffered in comparison
they have a social club but i didnt join
