    • This was a fantastic experience, invaluable to my career and studies. Enjoyed every minute of it.

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

    • I felt valued and useful at all times. People got me engaged in work straight away. I was never treated like an intern, but rather as an employee. I felt as such as well! That motivated me to work and develop.

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

    • I have had support all along the way. My manager, mentors and colleagues have always been there for me for generic questions but also to discuss my individual career.

    5/5

    • Very busy! In a good way. I always had something to do,

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

    • The level of responsibility grew along the way. In the end, I was organising and managing events in UK and outside with one other colleague. I got trusted with alot when I showed I could handle alot. I appreciate it so much. It has taught me a great deal.

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

    • Massively. I don't know where to start when describing how vast a variety of skills I learned during this time. Because people have been so open to share, I have been able to learn all from people skills, to technical skills to sales and marketing skills..

    5/5

    The Company

    • It was great. Very helpful and friendly.

    5/5
  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?

    • Quite well. It depended on which person you took over from. I did not receive much guidance from the previous intern, but I got alot of support from my colleagues. I got to build the role into what it is, which has been one of my development points.

    4/5
  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?
