    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
  • It depends on the role, as being an intern means you have very little experience therefore you may not be able to help as much as you would like to. But I was given a certain degree of responsibility where my work would have contributed to real-world change within the project. The team were always supportive however and would help whenever asked.
