It builds a knowledge base about the business as a whole that gives me confidence that I can preform my job to the highest standards and also understand other peoples roles in the company and why it’s important to work together for the company to be successful.
Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

I’m not really sure, I haven’t worked for the company very long and a lot of my employment has been during the Covid19 pandemic, so I haven’t had a chance to experience any work events yet.
