Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
I followed the key PM lifecycle phases which spanned product discovery to solution planning, supported by experienced PMs in the team. Day-to-day I scheduled meetings with my key stakeholders, tracked my progress, and completed deliverables which were guided by my Manager in our weekly 1-1s.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was responsible for my own project which has had real-life business impact as it was relevant to what the team is focussing on for 2025 onwards.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
At the beginning of the internship I underwent goal setting with my Manager and we focused on setting clear targets for what I wanted to achieve during the internship. I had opportunities to develop communication and collaboration skills through team meetings, and got to experience different areas of the business after expressing interest in wanting to understand the company operations as a whole to gain a holistic view.

Support and Guidance

How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
We were provided with a manager, mentor and navigator. My mentor supported me weekly through 1-1s where I brought topics to discuss and helped provide me with actionable strategies to implement in my work. It was a great 2-way relationship where we could both learn from each other.
