    The Role

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

    4/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • My manager is very helpful, supportive and pacient.

    4/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • As in every job this depends on different times of the year, when there are big films it is super busy, but when there are no films it is less busy. However, this is a good time to catch up with work you may have put on the back burner previously.

    3/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • I was given quite a lot of responsibility, especially during times when my manager was on holiday.

    4/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • The training has been the best out of all my other uni friends working for other companies. A lot is invested in you so it makes you feel more valued.
