The Role
Loved every minute and learnt a lot, only wish I experienced more departments
By the end of the placement I felt part of the team both professionally and socially
There were loads of people more than happy to help and advise me at any point
It varies from project to project but I always found something to do
At one point I was responsible for four countries and one of our biggest customers!
We will have to see when I get my final grade!
The Company
Generally positive but they were going through a merger so everyone was a bit u settled
Started off quite unorganised but we worked together to bring it together
Had a lot of responsibility so I developed a lot quite quickly, also the national development scheme helped
