Skills
My confidence in myself has increased massively! I have been given so much responsibility- never did I think I would be in charge of Aldi's fastest growing platform! I have not only increased my creative skills but also my communication skills as I need to work with internal and external stakeholders on a daily basis.
Responsibilities
I was given a huge amount of responsibility. This only made me more confident as it showed by manager had such a high level of trust in me!
Support & Guidance
I was given high levels of support. From 1:1's with my manager to weekly team meeting and even the occasional breakfast catch up! I felt completely part of the team.
Culture
The company culture as a whole is very traditional and corporate. Within the Marketing Department we have had socials such as a Summer Team Building Event, Bake-off's and quizzes. I have also enjoyed playing in the newly set up Aldi Netball Team
Your Impressions
I have extremely enjoyed my placement and being part of the team behind Aldi Admin. I wasn't expecting to have as much responsibility however this has only made my experience the more enjoyable. If given the opportunity I would love to return.
