The Role
The placement provided a lot of varied jobs
I felt very valued. All colleagues (including managers) treated me as an equal.
A lot of support was given
Very very busy. Never finish on time, always working over time to deliver cars or to complete office paperwork. However, the day does go very quick.
Towards the end I was running the day and also my branch manager was off for two weeks and assistant manager treated me as his assistant manager!
