Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Since starting the internship I was handed a large amount of responsibility from the intern prior. As I have developed through out the year I have been able to take on more and more responsibility including providing reporting on a quarterly basis to the c-suite of SAP UKI, developing an Accounts Receivable dashboard that I have now gone onto introduce to the wider European finance community within SAP as best practice.
