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

    • Some days I had very little to do or the jobs I had were a little boring. Other weeks I'd have lots to do. I'd never be left with nothing at all to do though so that was good.

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

    • I was given a really nice amount of responsibility. Enough that I felt important and I had my own projects and jobs but not so much that I had no support or was too stressed out.

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

    • My manager was under a lot of pressure and his work load was very heavy for the first half of my placement. Some of my training would occasionally be delayed or I would be unable to sit in on as many meetings as I would have ideally liked. Apart from that, which was out of my managers control, it was ran very smoothly and was structured.

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