Support and Guidance

How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
This varied but could have been better. My one-to-ones were less frequent than i'd like and often very project focused rather than on personal development/ worries or questions. I would have also liked some training or one-to-ones focused on understanding the brand and business as I was very new. However my team were very approachable and would answer any questions and help when needed.
