The Role
A very good placement year which has given me a great deal of experience.
Very nice group to work with, welcomed from the first day. Made a lot of friends which I will keep in touch with.
I had been sent on a numerous courses all around the country which gave me all the necessary skills and qualifications required.
The best part of this placement was year was that there had always been something to do, always a task to be completed.
Once I had been given the proper training I had been given all the usual responsibilities which someone of my position would have.
It helped me develop my skills and contributed in finding many other skills which I didn't think I had.
The Company
A good and positive atmosphere at the company most of the time.
Was very well organised
Nothing had been skipped, I recieved full training in every aspect.
Sports and Social Club
Financial Bonus
Staff Sales/Staff Shop
Above 25 days holiday
Without a doubt very apealing.
The Culture
Very good, regular meetings throughout the year.
I travelled from home so I can't say much on this.
Again, did not go out unless it had been a social event as I travelled from home.
There was but no too many times.
