    4/5
  • 4. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and information you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • I learnt a huge amount about the industry, and how to write a report. I think it is pretty applicable in my degree, and being able to talk to people from all aspects of life and the business will also help me in life.
