    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • I have really enjoyed the placement and look forward to be able to work for ARM again in the future. The projects I was tasked with stretched my skills and only rarely did I not enjoy the work.

    4/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • The people around me and who I worked with instantly started building great relationships making them easy to talk to whether they were my boss, or someone I only met rarely.

    4/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • Whenever I had a problem within my project there was many different people I could talk to about the problems I had encountered.

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

    • Almost every day I had something that needed to get done so that I was never bored. Although I did have a large amount of work I never felt that there was too much.

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

    • The projects I completed required little external direction, and the rest was my responsibility.

    4/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • I have learnt many different skills during the placement that I will definitely find useful in the future and has spurred me on to develop these skills further after the placement.
