Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
For some people it is shadowing and for some people it is actual work that you undertake. I was given work following the first week of training and we would work through the tasks set by a member of an audit team, which we join. For those shadowing, they attended meetings but generally had less to do
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Given a fair amount of responsibility as I was completing the work of a full time associate, the work was on the easier side generally so that we could have a proper go at completing it.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
