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

    4/5

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

    3/5

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • My communication and social skills have developed enormously and feel like i can effectively communicate with anyone and this is all down to the training i have received which would not be supplied by a university. You can get real life skills here.

    5/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?

    4/5

  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?
  • The work placement was fairly well organized however at some points everything was left to the last minute but can be expected in a small company.

    3/5

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

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?
