Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My job was to work closely with my manager and the department team. Attending, leading and organising meeting on the weekly bases, as well as being in charge or sending out agendas and minutes of the minutes to the participants. Working on individual tasks and projects given by the leadership team. doing daily admin tasks and collecting quality data.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
yes, I was given a lot of freedom to get as much out of the internship as I could. I was given a lot of room to advance and improve in all professional work place aspects. I was taught how to work with in a team. as well as how to organise myself to complete a task or a project effectively.

How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
I have gotten a lot of support from my departments leadership team and especially my manager. in a fast paced environment such as a factory, everyone has a lot of things to do and a lot of things to solve as soon astray come up. so I am very thankful that my team took some time out of their busy days to help me out and teach me.
