    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?

    • I was given a lot of responsibility which was amazing which really pushed me out of my comfort zone. I looked after many customers and in the 2nd half of internship I was given more customers to look after. You are able to communicate and start projects if you have a great idea which you can lead and this can be with senior management.
