    Responsibilities

  • 3. Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
  • Overall, I did not have a huge amount of responsibility as I was not given many tasks that the team was counting on me for on a regular basis. My greatest responsibility was to make progress on a large team project, which I worked on throughout the duration of my internship.

    Support & Guidance

  • 4. How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
  • A lot. My manager was very helpful and my team was very warm and open to helping me, as well as providing me with learning opportunities. It also really helped to have a grad buddy, as this was someone I could easily consult as well. Early Careers were also really useful, especially at the start of my internship, when I was having tech issues.
