The Role
I was give projects that i was really passionate about and could take ownership of. I was given quite a lot of responsibility which helped me grow my skills and experience. I was able to expand my network and collaborate with many different employees from across the world.
My team listened to my ideas and input and never made me feel like just a placement student.
I was given wellbeing support, career support and support with my projects from both my line manager and team members.
I was quite busy but it was a good challenge.
In certain projects i was given a lot of responsibility and was able to project manage and lead.
The Company
My office was quite quiet and no other placement students were there.
I had lots of learning resources available to me.
