The Role
I developed a lot of skills and gained an insight into the career
I worked with the same team for 3 weeks and developed excellent relationships
Regular emails and meetings helped to ensure I felt confident and happy
My teams always ensured I had the correct amount of work
By the end of the placement I was given a great deal of responsibility
Hopefully will help in my career
The Company
Nice people but intense work
Very well run, but a few of the people involved were not that helpful
A lot of time was spent training me
Received and accepted an offer
The Culture
It was a regional so quite quiet
Close to home so reasonable costs
There were but not so much in the time given
