Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Working on web development front-end in Angular to design a tool that could display system statuses given from Java back-end that I built.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
My manager set me on the project and gave me the freedom to work on it and choose design decisions as I see fit, providing oversight and guidance when I needed. So I had lots of responsibility but with the right support.
