Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Process engineering, I have been given multiple problems to solve with the aim of reducing errors and losses in production. This has been in the form of new tooling, technician training and process change. I have also created and designed build instructions and packaging specifications for multiple products.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
The first week was spent doing training and understanding the process, after that point I was given projects and treated like a typical engineer. I have been solely communicating to supplies and processing purchase requests.

Support and Guidance

How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
I was given a problem to solve or a project and then it was fully under my control to approach it as I wanted, no one was looking over my shoulder checking what i was doing which I really liked. They set up a weekly check-in session to make sure I was progressing and needed any large inputs of help, but in-between them in I ever got stuck or didn't know something I could ask anyone and they were always very open and helpful.

Recommendations & Advice

Would you recommend Siemens Healthineers to a friend?
Yes
What advice would you give to others applying to Siemens Healthineers
The advise i would give is just be chatty during the assessment process, make an effort to try and speak to every other applicant and member of staff holding the event. Make your voice heard and your personality remembered without being cocky or bolshy.
