My managers and team members have been very supportive throughout my placement. I was comfortable asking them any questions that I had and was satisfied with the help and responses I have received each time. My training sessions in the beginning were very informative and I was able to understand the tasks quickly. I was also provided with detailed desktop procedure notes and they have been very useful throughout the year.

Very supportive and friendly. Everyone treats each other with respect.

I have thoroughly enjoyed my placement year. I have been able to improve my networking skills and learnt a lot of new things that I can apply later on in my career.
