Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
At E.On we rotate around different departments on placements for 6 months which means we get a wealth of experience and oportunity to find the perfect place for us once we graduate. what this means for my placement currently is the project management of a social housing estate solar panels installations to improve the epc ratings of properties.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
5/5
i think the opportunity to rotate around the business has really increased my enjoyment of the programme
Skills Development
Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

E.ON have massively boosted my opportunity for extended learning past my degree, including funding additional certificates such as a NEBOSH health and safety compliance certificate which has developed my understanding of construction management
Structure and Support
How well organised/structured is your programme?
5/5
the structure offers close management and development from programme sponsors in year 1, and extends the reach of support thereafter as we rotate around the business into other departments. this structure allows us to get a feel for the business as a whole and establish an understanding of eon as a whole.
How much support do you receive from your employer?

Recommendations & Advice
Would you recommend E.ON UK to a friend?
Yes
Why?
They are a caring employer, i really feel like they recorgnise the human in people, knowing we all have families, and lives outside of work means that i feel like E.ON is a great organisation to work for long term!
What tips or advice would you give to others applying to E.ON UK?
Research the business, know the difference between E.ON UK, E.ON Next, and the wider european E.ON group, and remember that they are not looking for a finished product in you, but rather they are looking for potential :-)
