    The Role

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy your work placement or internship?
  • Highly enjoyable throughout the year. Less than a handful of times I have been faced with a task that I haven't enjoyed at all.

    4/5

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued by your colleagues?
  • The students within this department are not treated as "just students". We are given responsibility on tasks, and allowed the freedom to succeed as we wish.

    4/5

  • 3. To what extent were you given support and guidance by management/your supervisor(s)?
  • Support was given when needed, but not too much so I had to learn from my mistakes and learn what I needed to do rather than relying on the support of my manager and team.

    4/5

  • 4. How busy were you on a daily basis?
  • I have always had plenty of projects to work on. There have been times when I have felt over faced and under pressure to complete too much, with responses required by different people who did not understand the pressures I was facing from others at the same time. Nevertheless, these have all contributed to my increasing efficiency.

    4/5

  • 5. How much responsibility were you given during your placement?
  • Enough responsibility to know that I was part of the team and my efforts were necessary and appreciated. However, I was never given too much responsibility that I felt that I could make inappropriate mistakes etc.

    5/5

  • 6. To what extent did/will the skills you developed, and training you received, assist you in your degree studies and beyond?
  • I have learnt to face up to deadlines and work quickly and efficiently. Additionally, the realisation that your actions have consequences for others as well as yourself comes quickly.

    5/5
