The Role
I've learnt a lot during my placement year and took on a lot of responsibility. The culture at Box is great and I felt very welcomed and supported throughout the year.
I felt very valued at Box, there were no real hierarchies
regular 1:1 meetings with my manager and was able to ask my team members and other departments any time for support
I was responsible for reaching my target every month and did valuable work for the company.
I'm able to hold a business conversation now and build up a lot of confidence speaking in public.
