Overview
Running a daily stand-up with the team of developers to make sure everything is on track. After that meeting I would strive to solve any roadblocks the developers were facing to make development as efficient as possible.
Skills
Learned about the agile project management methodology and had a lot of experience to put this into practice. I now understand the corporate structure of a large company and know how to best find the stakeholder I need for my project.
Responsibilities
I was in responsible for an important business intelligence project and was overseeing 3 developers. It was my job to keep the medium term plan up to date and to run the sprint planning sessions where we decided our weekly development priorities.
Support & Guidance
My supervisor and I had 3, 1 hour, one to one sessions booked in every week for my development. He was also available to me whenever I needed him. Everyone was very approachable if I reached out to contact them both in my team and outwith.
Culture
Very friendly and approachable.
Your Impressions
My team was full of lovely people who were able to pick me up on the mistakes I made whilst managing to communicate this in a positive development spirit.
