Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
On a day-to-day basis, I monitor and measure tickets raised by the business users on our managing system - JIRA. I investigate issues and resolve them either on my own or by reaching out to other teams. I own the tickets until a resolution has been found. I constantly communicate with the users, vendors, engineers, DBAs, BAs, etc. The team has a plan of what we want to accomplish each day but this can often be put aside as a high-priority ticket can come, which takes priority.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I believe I was given much responsibility. I was treated as any other team member. The team trusted me not only with owning high-priority tickets but also with leading various projects and trainings.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Support and Guidance

How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
I had a 4-weeks long training plan when I started my placement, which was more than enough to settle in. I have always felt very supported - from the first day until the current time. The team has always offered to help me and guide me.
