    The Role

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

    • I had great fun learning about myself, and how I worked with others. The Tesco facilitators were great, and easy to talk to as were those running the course.

    5/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • There was a real sense of equality.

    4/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • Supervisors at Tesco are good at communicating ideas and skills to new people, they don’t spoon feed me (which I think is good) but at the same time they make sure I get enough guidance to complete the task.

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

    • There was a lot going on, but also enough time to take a break; we were busy but never over loaded.

    4/5
  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?

    • There were some great opportunities to take the lead, but again, never so much pressure that it was overwhelming.

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

    • What I learnt about myself over the internship will stay with me for life and help me develop my financial skills into the future.

    4/5

    The Company

  • 7. What was the general atmosphere in your office?

    • The whole experience was well organised so that there wasn't really a dull moment, the 'teaching' sections were interactive, so even the times that some might find less engaging became exciting.

    4/5
  • 8. How well organised was the overall work placement or internship set up?

    • There wasn't really a moment where I felt like people didn't know what was going on, and the timetable for the course made everything run brilliantly.

    4/5
  • 9. In terms of personal training and development, to what extent did the company or firm invest in you?

    • They invested huge amounts of time and resources into me as an individual, I am really happy with the progress I have made.

    5/5
  • 10. What were the perks on your work placement?

    • Flexi Time

    Subsidised Canteen
    4/5
  • 11. How appealing are future employment prospects within the organisation?

    • I have kept my fingers crossed and hoping for something good to come up after the completion of this internship.

    5/5

    The Culture

  • 12. Was there a good social scene amongst any fellow placement students/colleagues?

    • Everyone got on really well, and the company put a lot of time and effort into helping us all gel. There are students from different countries , so I enjoy being in a multi-cultural group.

    4/5
  • 13. What was the cost of living and socialising in the area you worked in?

    • As long as you know how to manage your salary, all activities can be affordable.

    4/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • The group on the course would tend to spend evenings together, and we all had a great time since there are lots of pubs you go out for a drink.

    4/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • There are many sports clubs and networks.

    5/5
