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

    • I feel I was given a much support as I asked for, and initally I asked for quite a bit of guidance. I don't think this was frowned upon, however I was encouraged to work as independently as I could on certain tasks.

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

    • I was given as much responsibility as my abilities allowed, during six weeks on the clients site the first few were spent learning about the actual project, therefore I was not experienced enough to 'run the show' but my tasks provided me with the right amount responisibilty.
