Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Assist on inspections, assist with report writing, assist with document reviews, attend training sessions including CPD, attend Next-Gen events aimed at promoting collaboration between members of the grad scheme and placement program.
I would say that the experience has been very hands on and has allowed an understanding of what to expect from a full-time position in the same role. The placement has provided a solid foundation for career progression.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was given an appropriate amount of responsibility during my placement. I was able to lead instructions on my own, however I never felt out of my depth due to the support on offer.
