    Responsibilities

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

    • Yes, we were treated as though we were full time employees. I even had the chance to go to an event in LA on my own, which felt incredible to be so trusted. The brand is really built on trust and allowing you to fail fast and learn plenty!
