A truly enriching experience I had the opportunity not only to discover research in a global company but also to understand how a company works The topic of the placement really matched what I was looking for at that time
I have enjoyed my placement working in research and development but I dont think the job is for me This placement has helped me to realise that I prefer working in a manufacturing facility to working in a lab
I really enjoyed the placement year I got to experience a vivid lab experience and picked up lots of skills along the way
I was part of a small but lively team The wider team also were interested and involved in the placement even if their job was different
A stimulating experience of the professional world
My year in industry was a thoroughly enjoyable experience that is left me feeling motivated and prepared to do well in my third year of university I would definitely recommend taking a year out if the opportunity is available
I was glad when my 12 months were up
I got very lucky in getting this placement I have now realised that I want to persue a job within this field
Thoroughly enjoyable placement Some great people and lots of social or teambuilding activities with the lab ie the pub but a continual expectation that you will work hard
It was challenging which is good
Working at GSK was the most incredible year and I didnt want to leave
My work placement was very interesting while synthesising druglike molecules and for this reason I enjoyed my placement at GSK
Relevant experience for the future and generally relaxed atmosphere
I really enjoyed my placement as I learnt a lot was exposed to different opportunities given responsibilities to manage and be apart many different IT projects
I definitely enjoyed the placement but am not sure if its what I would want to do for the rest of my life
Interesting on the whole but not a career path I will pursue
