Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
While I was entrusted with a number of responsibilities during my internship, I found that the scope of my role was somewhat limited compared to my initial expectations. I would have welcomed the opportunity to take on additional tasks or more complex responsibilities to further develop my skills and contribute more meaningfully to the team.
