Industrial Trainee (Civil Engineering) Review

At Arup I worked on a range of projects, leading to many outputs such as; 3D models, reports, presentations, drawings and more. My day to day would involve communicating with different grades of engineers working together to produce the best output. I have attended many site visits and client meetings during my placement.

This experience has exceeded my anticipation. The amount of development i have had has significant surpassed my expectations. I have learnt a countless amount of new skills and developed upon all my existing skills.

I was given a great amount of responsibility while on placement, working towards deadline and deliverables. This has allowed me to develop at a optimised rate, learning much faster than I though I could do. I was appointed roles such as organiser of a bi-weekly CPD sessions. These responsibility promoted growth in my skills and created the environment for me to have continual personal development.

I received a great amount of support and guidance, if i ever had a question there was always someone available to help. I was appointed a "buddy" when arriving at Arup. This has been very helpful throughout my time at Arup.

There is a healthy work environment present at Arup filled with kind considerate people. There is a great inclusive atmosphere.

I enjoyed my placement beyond expectations. It has truly been a life changing experience.

Yes

I would make them aware of the amazing work environment that exists at Arup, and advice them to look into Arup's core values and projects they have completed.
