    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

  • Colleagues thank you for your work and fill in an assessment form after each mission.

    4/5

  • 5/5

  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?
  • Plus: very well organised preparation before comingm induction days and end internship celebration. Minus: No cantine, no discounts for sport clubs. I would have sometimes appreciated to have more responsibilities or in-depth tasks.

    4/5
