Master Scheduler Intern Review

I really enjoyed working on the tasks I was given. I felt like I could contribute to the business and that my ideas and suggestions were taken on board by senior management.

Everyone I worked with was very friendly and made me feel at home. I was placed at site which is facing closure and although everyone was going through a difficult time they were very welcoming and gave me all the support and guidance I needed.

All senior management were very supportive and always available if I had any questions are concerns. They were all approachable and friendly and I felt like I was able to go to them for guidance whenever I needed it.

Some days were very very hectic whilst during others I was struggling to find things to do. However those days were few and were mainly towards the end of my placement when all of the substantial tasks had been completed.

I was given responsibility for some of my managers day to day reporting tasks as well as covering for colleagues whilst they were on annual leave.

The training I received on Excel will definitely help me in my degree. Also the communication and people management skills I was able to develop will only be helpful in later life.

The office was in a difficult position due to the uncertainty in everyone's future. However this did not hinder it from being a friendly place to work in and I always looked forward to seeing everyone in the office.

I had a few problems with HR during my internship and I felt like important information was not communicated in the appropriate manner. However my manage worked had to make sure that the tasks I was set were substantial enough to last the full 10 weeks and that I had everything I needed to complete these tasks.

I was required to attend an induction day and to complete some online training but this was the limit of any personal training.

I would love to work for Rolls-Royce in the future however I (and other interns) have heard nothing about this even though we were told we would have heard by now. Again, I feel let down by HR,

I was the only intern at the site however I kept in touch with some interns at other sites and we met a couple of times. There was no social scene between colleagues at work.

I commuted from my university accommodation (1 hour each way) so can't really comment on the area I worked in.

I did not live in the area I worked in so can not comment on the nightlife.

I am unaware of any activities outside of work I could have participated in.
