    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • I had a few projects within my team that I worked on in parallel. For each project I worked in a different team and they varied from Power BI reports, mapping out processes and managing people. I also completed an online course to develop my skills in python and attended talks to develop my understanding of the business.

    Your Impressions

  • 6. To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?
  • I have enjoyed the internship as it has been great to learn more about the business and learn some new skills. There were some weeks I had to fill my time as it can be quite slow for licenses to come through to be able to do the work on the projects. It was good to see applications to what I learnt at university, although I personally did not apply anything myself.
