    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?

    • I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Triumph with the option to leave after my 12 months however I chose to stay until I was due back at university.

    5/5
  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?

    • You dont realise how important work colleagues are until you become apart of the working world. I can honestly say I have gained a Triumph family of which several I will always keep in touch with. Its the people you work with that gets you through the day.

    5/5
  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?

    • If you ever require help - just ask. Someone will always give up time to help you as and when needed.

    5/5
  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?

    • There are alot of tasks that need completing in a timely manner - however you will never reach the point of overload. As mentioned everyone is willing to lend a hand when needed - especially at year end.
