The Role
A great placement, with huge variety in day to day work! However the everchanging nature of the work means I face challenges on a daily basis, which I love but wouldn't suit those who like routine or don't like working hard, it gives you a chance to really progress as a business person and has so far been invaluable experience
In this role you get involved with all of your colleagues, as a result you get to know and work with everyone
My colleagues are hugely knowledgeable and always willing to help, but you do get thrown in the deep end
My placement is in an amazing department where there is always something going on, whilst this is exciting however it does mean you will be very busy and need to be willing to put in the extra hours
A lot
Invaluable experience
