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

    • Normally, I was supposed to finish my work by my own. But when I got stuck on some programming stuff, my colleagues from our team give me some key words to search and some direction to learn, which is really helpful. In addition, my line manager has meeting with me every week, so that I can get enough feedback in time.
