    The Role

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

    • the placement year is great, it taught me a lot, allowed me to meet new people and even travel which is amazing for a student.

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

    • Everyone treats me like an equal. unlike in other companies, at bosch a placement student doesn't just get coffee and photocopy millions of pages.

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

    • My two managers are always helpful, giving me many tips and guidance on not just work related topics but life in general.

    3/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • I'm quite busy most days because as a project manager i have to constantly communicate with the customer, internal colleagues and help with any tasks which will ensure smooth running of the project. But the managers do understand that we are not robots and do not give us ridiculous workloads.

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

    • I have been given a lot of responsibility (probably more than other students) because I have by myself handled a whole project which was a challenging but great experience.

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

    • all interns have to attend compulsory training "build" which helps develop skills like communication, time management, self development etc. also the training we receive on the job and by shadowing others is invaluable.

    5/5

    The Company

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

    • the atmosphere is very chilled and very welcoming.

    5/5
  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?

    • The managers already had an incredibly detailed plan which explained what they wanted me to do. The good thing is that the plan is different every year so the student always does something different.

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

    • the company invests a lot in the students which is good because it shows that they care.

    4/5
  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    • the cost of living in Basildon is quite high which is why i stayed at home. There's also not many places to go out in which is why we always go to central london.
