Management Trainee Intern Review

Renting vehicles, greeting and checking in customers to their assigned vehicle, providing courtesy car vehicles for breakdown customers/customers who send their own vehicle in for repairs. Connecting with new businesses to create new corporate accounts, which helps the growth of the business. Delivering and collecting vehicles from corporate accounts.

I have improved my time management skills as we need to be on time to deliver/collect customers cars as well as during the day to get tasks done on time. I have improved on my customer service skills as we are interacting with customers all day, so having a smile on your face and some positive words go a long way! This makes the day run smoother and happier. I have also learnt how to multi-task better and prioritize tasks given to me, and I am able to complete the tasks to a high standard more times than not.

We had different aspects of the business split up between all our colleagues and we had to take control of that, such as growth, and these had to be updated regularly and monitored in branch as well as for the area. We then rotated these roles, so we got to experience and understand all roles well.

A lot as everyone is willing to help and guide you. Learning something new every day until it becomes natural, and each day after becomes practicing for the next role up.

Fast-paced environment where you have to think on your toes and be flexible and open minded. It is great to learn these skills in this environment as it helps you adapt to fast-changing situations. Also everyone is friendly and happy to help and guide you when you need help, which makes you feel more comfortable.

I enjoyed the placement very much, it has been a great learning experience for me to develop and learn new skills. Being the first corporate job I have done, it has taught me a lot about the real working world and what the environment is like in a corporate setting. It's also great to learn from any mistakes during the placement as it allows you to build your corporate character.

Yes

Be open-minded and flexible as every day will be different and things will change so you have to adapt to anything that comes your way. Also, be open to ask for help as everyone wants to see you progress.
