The Role
I enjoyed my placement a lot and learned many valuable skills.I really recommend Siemens for any students or graduates to start their professional life under support and guidance of highly qualified and experienced team of Siemens.
Everyone was very friendly.I worked on different project with different team and all of them were very helpful. Even though they were busy to meet tight deadlines and having a heavy work load, they helped me a lot in solving my work related queries. I was always made to feel valued. I had a great experience working with them.
My managers and mentors were very organized. They supported me whenever I had some problem and gave me proper guidance.
Throughout my placement, I never felt boring as I was very busy working on different projects and there were some free days when I supported some charity works and attended Siemens job fair events.
During first month of my placement was not that much busy as I was receiving some company specific training and then after I was involving to work in different projects and given the more responsibility as I gained the trust of the senior team members and managers.
I learned many technical as well as soft skills from this placement which is essential for the any professional jobs. I also received training for the company specific tools and software which is related to my degree.
