Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.

Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes, I was given plenty of responsibility and independence, showing trust in my skills, but also little time pressure was given so that I had time to fully explore new techniques and ideas.
