Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My role involved working within a small team on a digital transformation for a local government organisation. This involved meeting with the client and internally, coming up with strategies to improve services, working on powerpoint presentations, and analysing data within excel.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
I was given a lot of responsibility considering having no experience. I was given the opportunity to present to clients and help run workshops. I was also encouraged to put lots of work into the final deliverable to be given to clients. I was also introduced to all levels of seniority from associates to partners on a friendly level.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Skills Development
