Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Each day offers something new due to the project nature of our work. This results in an often fast paced, dynamic environment to work in. A typical feasibility project will start with market research, leading to data collection and finally analysis. Projects can take 3 days to 2 weeks to complete and with projects across markets, you wont get bored.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes, after my initial training was completed I was given my own feasibility study and throughout the year, the guidance on the projects was reduced so I became more independent. This helped me feel a sense of accomplishment after finishing my work. Developing a good relationship with the team allowed them to put more trust in my responsibilities.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was
