The Role
Really enjoyed my 5 week internship. Cemented my decision for applying for the year long placement.
Was working on real life projects and my input was require for the team to function as a unit.
I was given one on one tutoring on topic which I found tough
I was working on real projects
The area I was working on was required for the team, if it wasn't finished the team could still function.
