    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • The day to day role changes in general as no day is the same. Some of things I got to work on was presenting to our client, leading some meetings, and working on excel helping out with some tasks. Depending on what cluster/team you're on, the day to day work can differ a lot. All of these tasks were very insightful and helped me to achieve my goals throughout the internship.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • I have developed my presenting and public speaking skills through presenting to the clients. I also improved my excel skills as I was using it daily. Learning more about the formula's and formatting to make and present work neatly helped me a lot.

    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
  • Yes I was! Having no prior experience, my line manager trusted me to lead some of the daily huddles and get involved with some of the work. Of course there were a few bits where I was accompanied by someone to make sure I'm doing the correct thing, however overall I was definitely given a lot of responsability

    Support & Guidance

  • 4. How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
  • Each intern has a buddy, a career coach and a relationship lead as well as a line manager. All 4 of these contacts are all here to help, support and guide you throughout the internship to achieve your goals. You have weekly calls with them so they can track how you're doing and if there's any concerns you would like to raise. Overall, you do get a lot of suport.
