People skills have also Improved after working closely with many people across the business especially when its comes to managing conflicts of interest.

Yes - you are given all the responsibility of a regular employee - and in most cases more as you are given placement specific projects to collaborate on throughout the year that can have a lasting impact on the business.

I was always offered support whether I needed it or not and managers were very open around helping you develop your own career & skills.

The culture is remarkably friendly and welcoming. Coworkers are very interested in getting to know you as a person and your background - and that goes for people across the whole business, not just those within the team you work.

Was a great place to spend my placement year - I learned a lot, gained plenty of experience in a business environment, was able to travel, and took on a lot of responsibility within my role - overall TUI had a very positive impact on my career and personal development.
