    The Role

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

    • It was one of my best years at uni, large number of interns and the amazing people at intel made the year really enjoyable. The work you do is interesting but also the people there make the social life just as good as well. Would definitely recommend to anyone doing a placement

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

    • Very valued. You have a proper core role when you work at Intel as an inter, you are responsible for your area and are treated like someone who is an expert that whatever field it is you work in

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

    • There is a 6 week handover period from the previous inter, so you get 6 solid weeks of learning everything the intern did before you, and then you also have an on the job coach and weekly meetings with your manager.

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

    • Fairly busy depending on each day. some months are really busy depending on the time of year for the business and then it gets quieter

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

    • I had quite a lot of responsibly, however there are people you work with that are there to support you and everyone works as a team so it doesn't always feel like your just the intern constantly asking questions to the full timers.
