Overall Experience

To what extent did you enjoy your placement / internship?
Overall, my first time in a corporate setting was a great learning experience I've learnt more than I thought I would! I feel like I really fit in my team on my second rotation and enjoyed the work that they did.
My first rotation team weren't present for much of it so I didn't enjoy the first rotation as much. That being said I'm still grateful for them granting me the opportunity.
