    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
  • I was treated as if I was a permanent employee and trusted from the first week with important projects. I really wasn't expecting to have as much responsibility as I did. It has developed my skills immensely and it has made the year away from University so worth it.

  • 6. To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?
  • I couldn't have wished for a better year in industry. My skills have developed more than I ever thought they would. I have experienced things I never expected to, such as attending my first film premiere and I feel so much more confident about my future career. I am also looking forward to using all the skills I have developed this year in my final year at university.

Read up on their charity work and CSR initiatives- show your interest in the company and prove to the interviewer that you have an attachment to Disney in some way.
