About You
I had a great two weeks with tesco and enjoyed all my time there with them.
I was offered a permanent position following my time with them and believe that valued my role.
I recieved a little training before i was allowed to take part in normal roles.
I learnt a variety of skills including teamwork and how to speak to people. These have all been useful in my degree work.
The Company
I was never left with nothing to do and things flowed really well.
Great atmosphere during the insight. I was always surrounded by friendly and helpful people
I reasonable amount of time was invested into me and i believe this definitely increased once i was offered a permanent role.
I was carrying out activities that full time workers would be carrying out so i understood what it was like to have a full time role at the company.
I gained a understanding into how to company works and how it approaches business.
It has become an a key part of my career path and is something i will possibly be doing.
Everything Else
I was paid well
I met most employees around the store and managed to have chats with them
There were no social events while i was in the store.
There are a few yearly social events outside of work but none took place while i was there
I recommend this insight for anyone who is interested in going into this area of work.
