Support and Guidance

How much support and guidance did you receive during your placement / internship?
I have received lots of support and guidance. There was a two week handover with the previous intern which meant that we had time to understand the role and company from someone who was in our shoes a year earlier.
From there, my teams were happy to help me and answer my questions whenever.
