Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Basic audit + admin tasks on excel, sitting in on team meetings and doing online learning. I would find myself unassigned to any tasks at some points, but there is no shortage of online learnings to do.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was fully responsible for the tasks assigned to me. There was always help should I have questions but the ultimate responsibility to ask them and complete the task correctly was mine, which was good.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
