Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
Definitely. I had no clue about SharePoint sites and how they function before I started the placement and now I am the main POC for any SharePoint related queries. Same applies to SOX Audit reviews.
Multi-tasking and time management are also areas I have improved on so much.
