The Role
Thoroughly enjoyable yet challenging work
I was immediately made to feel as part of the team and was given significant work to do
Whenever I need help I was given so by the senior members of my team who simultaneously trained me so that I could learn how to figure things out for myself.
There were peaks and troughs in terms of work but if I look at the year overall I had a balanced workload.
I was given important tasks that contributed to the company in a very real way.
My work placement has helped motivate me and given me a real insight to what is really important in life.
The Company
My office environment was very lively but when a strict working environment was required, it was there.
In terms of a scheme, I believe Fujitsu could have offered more, but in terms of my work, it was very well organised.
I was given lots of personal development training that can be used all over the work place and in life in general.
Subsidised Canteen
I have been offered a conditional role based on my degree grade.
The Culture
There was a weekly football team and many other social events.
I lived in an average house with very average pricing in and around me. Social activities were not cheap but were not expensive.
I don't know.
I am quite an active person so I got involved in many different opportunities outside work.
