The Role
I found it challenging at times.
Really felt like a valued member of the team.
My Manager structured my workload.
Some days were busier than others.
I reported directly to the HR Director which gave me a real feeling of responsibility.
I really feel I have utilised my HR modules.
The Company
There was always a friendly atmosphere.
I had an excellent handover schedule.
I was sent on all appropriate training courses.
Sports and Social Club
I believe I have a fairly good chance of a graduate job at Vauxhall.
The Culture
Great social activities on offer.
Reasonable.
We usually went out of the area.
Local sports clubs which suited me a treat.
