    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • Your day-to-day varies and depends on what projects you're assigned to. It's not the same everyday which makes the internship exciting and interesting! You never know what challenges you'd be taking each day.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • I developed existing skills that started from university, e.g., Software skills, working in a team, communicating, etc. However, I definitely learnt so much more in my internship. University gives you the basic knowledge you'd need for your career, an internship gives you a huge insight of what it actually is like to work in your sector.
