Overview
Enter the office and check for emails and teams notifications. Then get on with whatever project I am currently working on, that may be Mark-ups for updating progress on a drawing or model, completing calculations or a report. I will usually have a meeting everyday with the team.
Skills
I have learnt better proficiency at using Microsoft apps, learnt how to use ProjectWise, Open Buildings Designer and MicroStation. I have also leant a lot about the general work process for an engineer and then how e specifically operate at Mott MacDonald.
Responsibilities
I haven't had much responsibility work-wise; however, in the team I have had lots of responsibilities, as I have had to organise lots of events and this then lead to me joining the social committee and then taking a leadership role there.
Support & Guidance
There has been lots of support, if I have ever had a question people were also happy to answer it. I was also left to my own devices when I wanted, so the task would be set and I was expected to do it, but help was there if I needed it and was happy to seek it out.
Culture
The atmosphere at Motts is lovely, it is one of my favourite things about working here. Everyone is friendly and I have had a great relationship with everyone in my team.
Your Impressions

Yes
To integrate yourself into your team, as then you will get the most out of working here
