The Role
It was difficult but the opportunities were second to none.
Brilliant colleagues, down to earth people that will be life long friends
As long as I asked support was forthcoming and HR were more than happy to help if I ever needed them (virtually never)
It fluctuated, but I never had time to do nothing.
Perfect amount as I could use the support.of my managers to find a balance.
Im already using what I've learnt every day, a placement is the most valuable part of the degree.
The Company
Very pleasant office with helpful people
The placement fluctuates year to year based on projects but it is a good set up based on the students interests
