    4/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • Had enough work to be working all day and not so much that i had to take it home with me. Ideal.

    5/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • The work i was doing could've been completed by someone else so it wasn't absolutely essential for me to do it but i think this was a good thing as i wanted to learn without the pressure of thinking i'd ruin the system.

    4/5
  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?

    • Very much so if i get offered a graduate job here as i will try to pursue a career in a similar area.
