Overview of Role
Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
My role is to support regular tasks in the team in order to deliver client based work. This requires use of coding with SAS. I have the opportunity to write bespoke code and also work with other languages such as VBA.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
Yes I was given a lot of responsibility. For example, I was asked to develop one of our existing products and my work is now used by clients on a weekly basis.
