Overview
My role is a placement, so it evolves learning skills that can then help my team.
Skills
Yes, in addition to some hard technical skills, I would say I have also developed my inter-personnel skills further.
Responsibilities
Yes, since I was in the Information Management team, which hadn't had a year long placement student before me, I found myself having a number of responsibilities that I was not expecting.
Support & Guidance
I really respect and appreciate the team I was a part of because everyone was willing to answer any questions I would have and guide me how to do things that I had not done before
Culture
One of the highlights from the placement so far has been the company culture and general atmosphere. I actually look forward to going into work and meeting my work colleagues who I consider friends as well.
Your Impressions
I enjoyed to to a high extent. I did not know what to expect once one starts to work in the professional environment, but everyone was so accommodating to the learning curve that came with that.
Yes
I would say that the people who work here actually are interested in what they do and who they work with. This is valid both externally as well as internally within the company. They are also aware how daunting the application process can be, so just be honest and open about how you feel, what your interests are and if you have any questions.
