Responsibilities
I was given a lot of responsibility in my placement and was made to feel as a valued member of the HR team. A large part of my role involved handling confidential information and I was a trusted to do this. We were always encouraged to give our feedback and to question why we do things the way we do.
Support & Guidance
I received a lot of support and guidance from the whole HR team, but especially from my manager. My manager was very approachable and always gave us help and guidance when needed. I had quarterly placement review meetings with my manager, giving me an insight into the appraisal process. In these meetings, my manager and I would discuss my key targets, how I feel I am doing and any areas I wanted to improve upon or new areas of HR i wanted to learn about.
Culture
Covid made it challenging to experience the general atmosphere, however the HR team were always so welcoming throughout. The company culture is very strong in Honda and we had monthly site meetings where the whole business could get together.
Your Impressions
I thoroughly enjoyed my placement year at Honda and I would recommend it to anyone. The HR team were so supportive and approachable throughout my placement year and ensured that I had a really positive year. I would really recommend the HR placement year to anyone interested in HR as it has given me a great understanding of the scope of HR and it has given me the skills and confidence needed for post uni.

When applying, really research into the Honda Philosophy and how this relates to you.
