Overall Experience
To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?
A placement is a mixed bag as it is a first experience of a new industry and that comes with its own challenges as well as the transition from being a student. I'd say the people have been the best part of the placement but feeling like you have contributed for the better makes it even more worthwhile.
