The Role
I enjoyed it but work was slow because the system we were updating was old, didnt have many users and they were phasing it out.
I wasnt fully integrated in the department as it wasnt a big team i worked for, i had no hand in other peoples work in my dept.
support was good, not alot of guidance though
not very
not alot, a few tasks had a lot of responsibility but the majority did not.
it wil help me organise my time effectiveky so i dont sit back off the pace
