The Role
The best 13 months of my professional development
Everyone was very friendly and I felt as a full time employee rather than a placement student
All the time.
There was always work to be done
I was leading two global projects, presentations in front of directors, monthly tasks with serious impact on the business
Sales training, Presentation Training, I was project leader for the biggest event for Kent Plant, Communication skills, presentation skills.
The Company
Friendly and Professional
Perfectly structured.
I took part in many different training sessions.
Flexi Time
Sports and Social Club
International Travel
Company Parties/Events
Above 25 days holiday
Every placement student has a good chance of getting back as a graduate
The Culture
We were going out for drinks very often
Not very cheap
The only bad thing about my placement year was the nightlife. There werent many places to go out in the area
Company dinners, quiz nights etc,
