Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
The year I have had with SAP has been the most valuable experience I have had to date. I have been able to develop my professional skills and learn new business applications.
I have to commend SAP with the way the dealt with maintaining the placement program during the Covid pandemic. We were able to maintain the level of responsibility we would have had if we were working in the office.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was given a lot of responsibility throughout the placement year. I was responsible for updating clients expense system to ensure that it is automated to the clients specific needs, this often required me to talk to client every day.
