Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My role involved working on a proposal for a project as well as a lot of business development work. I helped with organisation tasks for the team and also undertook work that hopefully led to the development of new business. Furthermore, I did research into potential clients and other research around acquisitions.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was given a lot of responsibility - working on a real proposal for a project and also doing research that was used on the scope was a big part of the end work, so I feel I was given things to do that made a real impact
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
