Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
I was assigned to a team within the Bristol office. I was given a variety of tasks that I had help to complete. I went on site visits, met clients and wrote reports. I also sat in on team meetings and attended social events. It was a great glimpse into what a career in commercial surveying might look like.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I felt a was given a good amount of responsibility. As I was given tasks that I could complete on my own but then my work was reviewed by my line manager. I also felt there was no pressure on me to have to present work that was at my colleagues level, as they were sympathetic to the fact I was only an intern.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
