Overall Experience

To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?
The internship is a great opportunity to work with industry experts, but it largely depends on your own ambition and ability to seek and execute work. This can be a hindrance for early career professionals as they have no prior experience and knowledge of the working environment. A large chunk of time can be wasted getting settled, therefore making seek work harder.
