My time management has improved as well, I have understand the importance of prioritising my day to day tasks. My functional knowledge has increased, I have a much wider understanding of the HR function and how we can support the rest of the other departments.

Throughout my placement I was given an increased amount of responsibility. I have been involved organisation of FORVIA day and help co-ordinate employee empowerment events. I have been given real responsibility that has directly impacted the company, especially in recruitment

I have been given a huge amount of support. When I joined the company I was given a great handover from my predecessor, with out the initial support in the first few week I would not have been as confident. Throughout the year I have been given continuous support especially when my work load increased. I have been able to network with other HR professionals with in the company

The company culture at FORVIA is positive, the students were involved in a Charity Challenge against the other sites. Events were organised for FORVIA day which created a positive atmosphere within the factory.

I have enjoyed my placement thoroughly, my team have been great role models and have supported me throughout. I have enjoyed working within the automotive industry due to it's fast pace nature.
