Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
A typical day would involve working on a new hotel development project, and these projects can vary in their brand, location, size, market segmentation and more. Feasibility studies involve doing market research, planning financial projections and doing analysis and valuation. We work mostly independently, but review projects with our team and also work on projects helping other teams, and team objectives, which can involve anything from spreadsheet modelling to researching market trends and data analysis.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was given a nice amount of responsibility in my role, getting to work on a lot of independent projects. I had a lot of opportunity to be creative, take initiative and be innovative with market research and developing analysis methods.
